IMPACT OF COVID-19
JURISDICTIONS
Jersey, Guernsey, Isle of Man
METHODOLOGY
Online Tracking Survey
DATA COLLECTION
23 March – 28 June 2020
SUMMARY
From time to time we also undertake our own research that we hope will be of interest to people living in the islands. This is one of our own pieces of research, and is an opportunity for us to give back to the island communities who participate in our research.
Island Global Research undertook regular online surveys to track the impact of COVID-19 on islanders in Jersey, Guernsey and Isle of Man. As COVID-19 was starting to reach our islands, we felt it was important to record the impact. Our aim was to learn how our sample of respondents were being impacted across a range of dimensions, and track how this changed over time.
This report is a compilation of findings released from a series of surveys that were conducted over a 3 month period. The research provides insights into how we perceived the threat, how our lives changed, and how we felt about undertaking different activities as the restrictions imposed were relaxed.
Responses were collected as part of a series of nine surveys undertaken in the spring of 2020. Each survey was completed by up to 1831 residents across the three islands. The IGR research panel was invited to participate. Each survey was open for one week and we report on the results for the unweighted sample allowing us to track changes within this group. The results are not intended to be representative of the total population of each island, although the profile of respondents covers a wide-cross section of island residents.
