In late 2009 a survey was carried out to every house in Aranui. Questions were asked about the 5 result areas that the trust is working towards. These 5 areas are based around health, education, participation, the physical environment, social / spiritual capacity.
In total 1130 questionnaires were returned from 2700 homes, each giving detailed personal views on what has happened in Aranui to make it a good community, and what needs to happen to make it even better.
