• A dedicated teenage social space including activity opportunities

Worcestershire Air Quality Survey 2026

Worcester residents are being asked to fill out the Worcestershire Air Quality Survey 2026

The questionnaire aims to capture insights into issues like awareness and use of local air quality tools, lifestyle changes to improve air quality, and communication preferences on the important topic. 

The survey is being carried out by Worcestershire Regulatory Services (WRS) on behalf of Worcester City Council and delivered in partnership with Worcestershire County Council. 

An earlier evaluation in 2024 highlighted concerns around public health, the environment, urban planning, and quality of life. These findings helped inform strategies to reduce air pollution exposure and promote air quality information, including making improvements to the behavioural change workshops carried out in schools and community groups. 

It is hoped the new survey results will continue to help make a difference to the future of work to improve air quality and will see more engagement with the communities to achieve this.

The deadline for this survey has been extended to 1 September 2026.
