It is a household survey conducted in England, tracking the latest trends and developments across areas key to encouraging social action and empowering communities, including:<ul><li>volunteering and charitable giving;</li><li>views about the local area;</li><li>community cohesion and belonging;</li><li>community empowerment and participation;</li><li>influencing local decisions and affairs; and </li><li>subjective well-being</li></ul>Up to 2015-16, the survey used a face-to-face methodology. Following thorough testing, the CLS moved to an online and paper mixed-method approach from 2016-17 onwards (a paper self-completion questionnaire being available as an alternative to the online survey), with an end to previous current face-to-face method. The objectives of the survey are to: The objectives of the survey are to:<ul><li> provide robust, nationally representative data on behaviours and attitudes within communities to inform and direct policy and action in these areas;</li><li>to provide data of value to all users, including public bodies, external stakeholders and the public; and</li><li>underpin further research and debate on building stronger communities</li></ul>The Community Life Survey incorporates a small number of priority measures from the Citizenship Survey, which ran from 2001-2011, conducted by the Department for Communities and Local Government. These measures were incorporated in the Community Life Survey so that trends in these issues could continue to be tracked over time. (The full Citizenship Survey series is held at the UK Data Archive under GNs 33347 and 33474.) Further information may be found on the gov.uk <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/community-life-survey" title="Community Life Survey" target="_blank">Community Life Survey</a> website. The 2014-15 survey covers July 2014 to April 2015 and forms 'Official Statistics', meaning that it meets the high standards of quality set out by the <a href="http://www.statisticsauthority.gov.uk/assessment/code-of-practice/" title="Code of Practice for Official Statistics">Code of Practice for Official Statistics</a>. End User Licence and Special Licence data Users should note that there are two versions of each Community Life Survey dataset. One is available under the standard End User Licence (EUL) agreement, and the other is a Special Licence (SL) version. The SL version contains more detailed variables relating to: social class; ethnicity; religion; sexual identity and lower level geographical classifications (see Main Topics section for details). The SL data have more restrictive access conditions than those made available under the standard EUL. Prospective users of the SL version will need to complete an extra application form and demonstrate to the data owners exactly why they need access to the additional variables in order to get permission to use that version. Therefore, users are strongly advised to order the standard version of the data. The standard EUL version of the Community Life Survey, 2014-2015 dataset is held under SN 7836.
