The user survey results (carried out in the early stages of the redesign) were analysed to produce a series of typical user personas. These personas represent the main user segments for the site in terms of occupation, age, gender, online frequency, connection speed and online habits and experience. By it's nature a local authority website will draw many distinct types of users but the personas here should represent a good cross section of our audience.
