Communication, Connection & Support Survey 2026 - Companion Technologies Ltd

Research conducted by Companion Technologies Ltd

Thank you for taking part.

This survey explores communication challenges, social connection, difficult conversations and help-seeking experiences.

Many people report delaying important conversations, struggling to find the right words, avoiding difficult discussions, or finding it difficult to ask for help.

This survey aims to better understand these experiences and identify where communication barriers may exist.

The survey is anonymous and should take approximately 3–5 minutes to complete.

Thank you for helping contribute to this research.
