Opinion Panel

About Us

Dedicated to research with students and young people

The OpinionPanel Community is the community arm of YouthSight, an independent market research company that specialises in research with students, young people and young professionals. The company was founded in 2004 (as OpinionPanel) to represent the views of students and young people to social and market researchers, policy makers and recruiters.

The OpinionPanel Community is made up of The Student Panel (for students in higher education), The Applicant Panel (for university applicants), The Graduate Panel (for university graduates) and The Youth Panel (for any 16-30s who aren’t students, applicants or graduates). In total The Community has over 100,000 members, making it the largest youth and student research panel in the UK.

YouthSight is proud to have a wide range of brilliant clients including Lloyds Banking Group, Red Bull, the Student Loans Company, The Guardian and over 80 universities. They come to YouthSight because of its excellent research team and The OpinionPanel Community which provides them with uniquely large, valid and representative groups (as well as the smallest of sub-groups).

Students and young people join our panels to make their opinions count – and earn some decent incentives in the process. Our surveys are anonymous and our servers are firewall protected throughout. All our research is private and confidential. For more details, see our privacy policy.
