Perth Perception Survey

Since 2012, the Committee has commissioned market research firm Ipsos to take the pulse of the community on a range of issues. The Survey picks up the sentiment of people living across Perth and Peel, including Committee for Perth members, by asking them to rank aspects of their life. Previously, the Perception Survey identified areas of high value, like our much-prized quality of life, along with things that need improving including housing affordability and our public transport system. What’s always enlightening is the response to the open question, ‘If I were Premier for the day …’.


Sally Braidwood, Director ANZ, Ipsos Global Reputation Centre, will be presenting the findings of the survey. Sally has worked on the past two Perception Surveys and brings a detailed understanding about where sentiment has changed over the past six years.
