Survey asks: have you prepared for Brexit?
Have you done anything to prepare for Brexit, including a possible no-deal?

This is the subject of a new questionnaire by lobby and self-help group Ecreu (Expat Citizen Rights in EU), part of the British in Europe coalition of campaign groups.
The survey highlights key issues which could affect people’s future after Brexit and asks people to state whether they have done research and planning with regard to the topic. The aim is for Ecreu to form a picture of how prepared Britons are for the changes to come.
