## Description

This will be a re-designed piece of research to replace the previous piece \(the "MPs and Elected Representatives Survey"\), the contract for which has recently expired\. The primary objective of the new research is to capture data about elected representatives' perceptions and awareness of the Fund, data which will be used to inform one of our corporate KPIs \(KPI 6: "More than 50% of elected members are aware that the Fund supports good causes thanks to the National Lottery"\)\. The research will also be used to measure the effectiveness of our engagement and advocacy approach with elected representatives\. Data will be used to inform portfolio level business planning and engagement strategies\.
