GuideStar UK has launched a public consultation into its search facility,
calling for people to test and then comment on its performance.
The GuideStar UK website aims
to help promote and support the work of the voluntary and community sector
by providing an extensive source of information about charitable organisation’s
activities and accounts, free of charge to the public. To ensure that
its potential users can access the details they require, the charity has
invited them to give their views on the search engine.
Opinions can be given via an
on-line questionnaire, which will be followed up with consultation meetings
later in the year. The website will then be officially launched to the
public in April 2005.
Erica Roberts, chief executive
of Guidestar UK, said: “It is only by listening to our future users
that we will be able to ensure that GuideStar UK will meet their needs.
Consultation has proved invaluable in the development of the project to
date. This on-line questionnaire will only take a few minutes to complete
and will provide us with important feedback about how our users will want
to navigate their way around the website.”
The questionnaire
can be found at www.guidestar.org.uk
