‘We asked – you answered!’ - Travellers Times reveals results of our readers survey

The Travellers Times has today published a report outlining the results of its readers survey, which took place over the summer of 2024.

We had 140 responses to the survey, which was made available and in print, with the print copy being posted with free return postage paid to all our magazine subscribers.

The survey was also shared online across our digital reach including our website, social media platforms, newsletter and email communications. The survey compliments our findings from our website and social media analytics, which shows that our annual online audience reach regularly falls between 200,000 and 300,000 total users.

“The responses given in this survey are invaluable as we plan for the future, helping us to better serve the diverse needs and interests of our audience across all our platforms and projects,” said Liza Mortimer, Travellers Times Project Manager.

“We are listening, and we're committed to using your feedback to make Travellers Times even better for everyone,” added Liza Mortimer.

From the responses, we learnt what a section of our audience likes and dislikes, what TT means to them, the opportunities they found through TT, and lastly what improvements they would like to see for the future.

This survey was also part of our preparation for the Travellers Times becoming an independent charity and no longer a charitable project run by Rural Media Charity. In 2025 TT will be independent and fully owned and led by the people it represents: Gypsies, Roma and Travellers in the UK.

We have made the survey report available to our readers and the wider public in keeping with our ethical method of working by and for the people we represent, and it will be used to show future funders and stakeholders the impact of Travellers Times and ensure its continued legacy.
