The Tapestry survey is now in its 4th year, and this year we had an amazing 1536 respondents! Thank you to everyone who took part. The results give important insights into what it is like working in the sector.

Once you’ve checked out the results, let us know what you think in this post. Do you agree, or have advice to share?
