We want to know what you think! Join our AIM membership insight group

Would you like to join a forum of AIM members to provide regular feedback on all aspects of your membership? Can you help us ensure your membership benefits are meeting your needs and those of all our members? Do you want to help shape AIM’s policy and advocacy activity? If the answer is yes, then join our new insight group!

What’s it all about?

Established in 2021 and building on our biennial member surveys, this group further strengthens and deepens our insight into the support members need in the fast-moving environment we are all operating in.

It helps AIM develop its programmes, acts as a testing ground for new ideas and initiatives and enables us to hone our response to the common challenges and opportunities facing our community.

Who can join?

We are looking for members from right across the UK, from a variety of organisational backgrounds and with a range of experiences. From managers and volunteers, to curators and front of house staff, to directors, and all points in between.

In other words, a group that is fully representative of the many organisations and people that make up AIM.

What’s the commitment?

You will be invited to take part in no more than four focus groups a year, of around 90 minutes length. All focus groups will be hosted by an external facilitator, so your responses will remain anonymous. These focus groups run quarterly and mainly take place online.

In addition to taking part in focus groups, we will canvas your opinion on a variety of themes via email to help AIM respond to the regular requests for input it receives from e.g., UK Government, ACE and so on.

What’s in it for you / your organisation

This is a great opportunity to network with colleagues from organisations of all sizes and types from across AIM, and with a wealth of different experiences. You’ll hear about the latest challenges and innovations developing across our community and can help make a real difference. Finally, you will be enabling AIM to shape and sharpen its work and innovate in the face of challenging times.

I’m in! What do I do now?
