The Institute of Groundsmanship (IOG) is a membership organisation representing the whole of the grounds care industry and all those involved in it. The IOG is currently conducting research into the grounds care sector to assess the conditions in which groundsmen/women and greenkeepers are operating and also the contribution it makes to sport and the economy.

The IOG will present the outcomes of its research to decision makers at organisations across sport, local/national government and funding organisations as well as making it available across the sector.

To support this work, we are asking all groundsmen/women and greenkeepers both employed and volunteers to complete a survey at the link below:

(All information provided will be treated in strict confidence and no individual responses will be disclosed. The responses will be viewed only by IOG staff and research contractors for the purposes of the research project).
