Police online poll for public

(adapted from a post on Tower Wharf Residents’ Association’s website)

Police Scotland is inviting people to tell them what they want from local policing via a new online survey.  The survey, which takes 15 minutes to complete, follows feedback from communities who want better opportunities to have their say.

Chief Constable Phil Gormley said, ‘Police Scotland wants to gather and understand views which reflect the needs of communities.’

The year-long survey went live yesterday at www.scotland.police.uk/yourviewcounts.

Go take, take 15 minutes and tell them what you think!
