Parents/Carers Survey
Friday 10th December 2021Our 2021 Parents/Carers survey highlighted just how important and highly valued the work of the BB has been for families over the last 12 – 18 months.
Parents/carers expressed their concerns about the impact of the last 18 months on their child’s mental health and wellbeing, highlighting the reduced social interactions that have been a feature of all our lives. Not surprisingly there was a strong hope expressed in being able to get back to face-to-face activities, but also an acknowledgement that virtual activities and #BBatHOME had played an important part in their child’s lives.
95% of parents/carers agreed that BB activities had a positive impact on their child’s mental health and wellbeing over the last 12 months.
91% of parents/carers agreed that BB activities had helped keep their child physically active over the last 12 months.
