Compliments, Comments and Complaints
Our feedback scheme provides an opportunity for you to tell us what we do well, make suggestions for improvements and, if dissatisfied with a service, to make a complaint. All feedback received is reviewed and themes are scrutinised to identify where improvements are needed, and good practice is highlighted and shared across our organisation.
There are various ways you can give us feedback which are detailed below.
Compliments
If you have experienced a good service from SEWCJC, had a good experience at one of our events, or want to praise one of our staff for doing a good job you can use this feedback form to let us know.
Comments
Your comments about any aspect of our activities, good or bad, help us to understand what is important to you, what we are doing well and where there are areas we might improve.
You can make a comment or compliment in the following ways:
- Request a copy of our feedback form from the member of staff you are already in contact with
- Complete our online form
- Write to us at: Cardiff Capital Region, Feedback, Sbarc|Spark, Maindy Road, Cardiff, CF24 4HQ
Whilst we encourage both compliments and comments, it is not possible to respond to each one that we receive.
