Residents in Barking and Dagenham invited to share views in 2026 borough-wide survey
Barking and Dagenham residents are being encouraged to take part in the Residents’ Survey 2026, an annual borough-wide consultation designed to capture local opinions on neighbourhoods, council services and the issues shaping everyday life.
The survey gives people across the borough — from long-standing residents to those who have recently moved in — a chance to share their experiences and help inform future priorities. Feedback gathered will support the council in understanding what is working well, where improvements are needed, and how services can better meet community expectations.
Residents can take part now via One Borough Voice:

All responses are confidential, and the survey will remain open until Sunday 1 November.
The council says it appreciates the time residents take to share their views, emphasising that community insight plays a vital role in shaping a borough that remains a good place to live.
