Dear Mr Silverman,
 
Thank you for your email regarding our press release about the Hillingdon residents’ survey.
 
We compared the results of our survey with that of the latest London Council Survey of Londoners. Their survey was of 1,034 residents spread evenly across the capital and it asked many similar questions to Hillingdon. Below are some direct comparisons of how satisfied residents in Hillingdon are with services compared to residents across London as a whole.
