Final 24 hours to voice your opinions on policing priorities

Police and Crime Commissioner Philip Wilkinson is urging residents of Wiltshire and Swindon to ensure their voices are heard as there is just 24 hours remaining to complete the Use Your Voice Survey. 

After launching almost 4 weeks ago on Friday 5 July 2024, residents have been able to have their say on different aspects of policing, including which areas of policing are most important to them, their perception of crime rates over the past three years and how they think Wiltshire Police could improve the service it provides.  

The responses will feed into Mr. Wilkinson’s new Police and Crime Plan which will set out strategic policing and crime priorities until 2029. 

He said: “This is your last chance to ensure that your views are heard and reflected in the next Police and Crime Plan. I want to ensure Wiltshire residents get what they feel they want and deserve out of their police service. 

“If you haven’t already completed the survey, I would encourage you to do so as soon as you can to avoid missing the deadline.” 

Members of the public will be able to download the draft plan from the PCC website and provide feedback in early September. The revised plan will replace Making Wiltshire Safer: Police and Crime Plan 2021-2025 after it is presented at Wiltshire’s Police and Crime Panel meeting in November.   

This survey has now closed.
