Questions include asking you if we provide value for money, how well we keep you informed and to what extent you can trust us.

Primary-age children still have time to get involved in this year's Summer Reading Challenge.
The challenge is a great way to keep children's reading skills up to speed over the school holidays.
This year's theme is sport and games. Find out more at your local library or on our website. And you can follow our library service on Facebook to find out about events.
Children can read or listen to any six library books over the summer holidays and be rewarded every step of the way with stickers, culminating with the award of a medal and certificate.

Don't forget that there’s still plenty you can do or see while Buxton Museum and Art Gallery is temporarily closed.
It's been closed temporarily following investigations which revealed dry rot in some of the building’s structural timbers. Further investigations are being carried out, but these can’t be done while the building is open to the public.
You can still enjoy the collections and artwork online. Visit the Wonders of the Peak website, Depicting Derbyshire which explores our historic landscape through the art collection and you can find our oil paintings on the Art UK website.
You can read the museum's blog where there are hundreds of articles about the collections and virtual exhibitions, there are Make and Take ideas and the education resources will inspire teachers and curious visitors alike.
You can also take a virtual museum tour and join the mailing list.
Follow the museum's Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts for updates.
