1. Coram Voices Through Time - Transcribers

0%
Thank you for transcribing with us on Voices Through Time: The Story of Care. This survey is about your experience of transcribing.
 
Your participation is voluntary, and you can choose to withdraw at any time by closing the survey. If you do not want to answer any questions, please leave them blank. Your responses will be anonymous. The Voices Through Time privacy policy can be accessed here.

This survey will take a couple of minutes to complete, and a minute further if you answer questions 'about you', which will help us understand the profile of Voices Through Time volunteers and reach a wider audience.

Your feedback will be used to evaluate the Voices Through Time project and help improve future volunteering opportunities. We will be writing a report of all feedback received for the project's funder (the National Lottery Heritage Fund) and this may be published. Coram’s Impact and Evaluation team are evaluating the Voice Through Time project. If you have any questions about the survey, please contact research@coram.org.uk.
