Public Surveys
Understanding the views of local people is essential to our work so that we can effectively represent the community. We undertake a wide range of consultation activities to obtain the views of the people of Suffolk on policing, crime and anti-social behaviour issues, and whether they feel the police provide value for money.
A crucial part of this process is our public survey programme. This allows us to gather the views of our communities on a range of topics and issues. It also allows us to understand the important issues facing Suffolk’s residents and to measure perceptions around crime and disorder.
We use the results to identify areas of concern and to identify actions to be taken to respond to key issues. The results are also fed into the planning process for our Three Year Plan, which sets out the policing priorities for the coming years. The current Three Year Plan is available to view in our documents section
