The Professional Contractors Group (PCG) has launched a survey for freelancers as part of plans for its National Freelancers Day (NFD) later this month.

The study is part of a series of events for NFD, all of which focus on the changing nature of freelance work.

The survey will be conducted by research consultancy ComRes on behalf of NFD's partners, which include Journalism.co.uk.

"We are very interested in hearing your views on the industry and your own experience of embarking upon and making a success of your career as a freelancer," the PCG said.

It will be of great help to us in unlocking and promoting the full potential of freelancing, with a specific focus on the role of this within such a challenging economic climate."

The results of the survey will be published as part of the November 23 event and reported by Journalism.co.uk.

The questionnaire can be completed online at this link and should take no more than 10 minutes to complete.

For more information contact Sophie Bolsover at ComRes on +44 (0)20 7340 9639 or sophie [at] comres.co.uk.

NFD will be marked by a series of online webinars and regional events with speakers including futurologist Dr James Bellini.

The PCG is also asking for recommendations from freelancers for the event, which can be emailed to info [at] nationalfreelancersday.org.uk.
