We have received this communication from the office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC). You may be interested to fill in the survey.

The Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) for Lincolnshire is currently undertaking his annual crime and community safety survey.  The survey plays a crucial part in understanding what residents believe are the priorities for keeping the communities of Lincolnshire safe and includes questions on experiences of crime and feelings of safety. The survey is also used to ask residents about the amount of money they are prepared to contribute to the policing element of their council tax bill (known as the ‘precept’) and the PCC will use the consultation findings to inform setting of the precept for 2025/26. 

The wide-ranging data that is collated as a result of the survey is shared with partners across local government to support us all in our collective aims regarding community safety, as well as being used to support joint bids for funding such as the Safer Streets Fund, which has seen millions in additional funding being gained for all of the districts of the county.  The summary findings of the survey are made publicly available on the PCC’s website: Annual Survey Results | Lincolnshire Police & Crime Commissioner (lincolnshire-pcc.gov.uk)

The 2024 survey is live now and will run until 15^th December.  It is accessible online here lincolnshire-pcc.gov.uk .  In addition, the PCC’s Safer Together Team are attending public events to provide the opportunity to complete the survey face to face.  These are publicised on the ‘Events’ page on our website and are taking place across the county, see https://lincolnshire-pcc.gov.uk/.
