Have Your Say on the Future of Policing

To help formulate the new Police and Crime plan, Cumbria’s Police and Crime Commissioner, Peter McCall has today launched a public consultation survey, asking people what they think the police’s priorities could be.

Police and Crime Commissioner, Peter McCall comments: “A large part of my role as Police and Crime Commissioner is to hear the views and concerns from residents of Cumbria and by completing this survey and sharing your views, you can help to influence the direction for policing in the county.  Our focus is to fight crime and anti-social behaviour, support victims and bring offenders to justice through effective policing.

“I will use feedback from the public in this survey, policing knowledge from the Chief Constable linked to national policing priorities and involvement from the Police and Crime Panel, to set the policing priorities in the Police and Crime Plan 2021-2024.

“It will set out the policing objectives for the Constabulary for the next three years and show how I will work with partner agencies to keep Cumbria safe.

“I would like to encourage as many people as possible to take this opportunity and complete the survey.

“Only by letting me know what is happening in your community can the issues be addressed.  The Plan focuses on ‘we not they’ and I am a great believer that we all need to work together to make Cumbria an even safer place.”
