Police seeking feedback

206998_01

Brimbank residents have the chance to have their say on the policing in the local area.

Victoria Police have released the annual Community Sentiment Survey which will be open online until the end of this month.

Brimbank Neighbourhood Policing Co-ordinator Leading Senior Constable Matt Mudie said they wanted to get as much feedback as possible.

“The annual survey provides an opportunity for Victorians to share with us their safety concerns, how they would like to interact with police, and where we can focus our efforts to prevent and deter crime,” he said.

“Everyone who lives, works, studies or socialises in Victoria is encouraged to complete the survey.

“Responses are anonymous, and the survey does not ask participants for their names or contact details.”

The survey covers, how safe you feel, your ideas to improve safety, how you want to engage with police and how comfortable you feel approaching police and PSOs.

Victoria Police will use the responses to inform local safety plans and organisational priorities.

Local police will provide updates about the various safety issues raised and neighbourhood policing activities undertaken through media and social media.

The survey is part of the Neighbourhood Policing Framework and administered by Engage Victoria, the official Victorian government consultation site.
