We regret to inform you that the Northern Ireland Life and Times Survey did not run in 2011 as we were unable to confirm the full package of funding required in time to allow fieldwork to take place. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and hope you will appreciate the challenges we face in trying to secure funds for this annual survey, particularly in the current financial climate.

We are pleased that funding for the survey in 2012 and 2013 has been secured and so this important time series will continue.

Results from the 2010 survey are available.

The Northern Ireland Life and Times Survey was launched in October 1998. The survey puts on record the attitudes, values and beliefs of the people in Northern Ireland to a wide range of social policy issues.

Whether you are at school or at college, work in the media, government or voluntary sector, or whether you are just interested in what the people of Northern Ireland think about the issues of the day, we hope you find something useful in this web-site.
