Centre for Cities – City Region Research
Savanta ComRes conducted polling among residents in five city regions (London, Manchester, Liverpool, the West Midlands and Tees Valley) about their mayors and priorities for politicians in their city at the moment.
  • While more than five in six (86%) respondents were aware that their city region has an elected mayor, less than half (44%) of all respondents are able to correctly name the mayor of their city.
  • Approximately one in five respondents say health care provision (22%) and housing (19%) should be the most important priority for politicians in their city at the moment.
  • Three in five (58%) respondents from across the five city regions say the Mayor should have more direct responsibility over providing affordable housing. Respondents are then most likely to say they believe their Mayor should have more direct responsibility over bus services (50%) and local trains (45%).

Sunday Express Voting Intention and BBC Poll

  • “We were so pleased with the results of the polling we commissioned through Savanta ComRes. Katie and her team were a steady hand of expertise throughout the whole process and worked quickly and professionally to meet our deadlines. The polling provided us with a hook that was instrumental in enabling our campaign to take light more quickly and gain a wider reach.”

  • “I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Charu, Rachel, and the rest of the Savanta ComRes team to any colleague who is interested in commissioning some polling. At every stage of our research with NHS leaders (from designing the questions, finding the right sample, going to field, analysing the results, and checking that we represented the findings accurately in our report), the team at Savanta ComRes were just brilliant – professional, responsive, expert, and enthusiastic about helping us achieve what we were after. I will definitely be working with them again in the future.”

  • “Savanta ComRes led a very substantial and complex data project for us with really expert advice and guidance to make sure we got the best possible quality data. With the help and support of Savanta ComRes consultants and in house data experts we managed to put together a potentially very difficult project on time and to the highest quality. They understand their clients and what matters to them."

  • Savanta ComRes were an absolute joy to work with. We needed a punchy poll-based story for the launch of the latest phase of our Choose Psychiatry recruitment campaign and Savanta ComRes delivered that in buckets, with the story getting national television, radio and print coverage as well as online.
