Have your say about crime in Suffolk

I understand that Parish Councils have received the e mail below  from the office of the Police and Crime Commissioner. Perception of the prevalence of crime in an area is often somewhat different from the reality, and therefore the results of this survey should be interesting.
I wish Mr Passmore luck with making savings in the police force.  People's perceptions are often hard to shift, however much one  emphasises the facts;  and, of course, knowing crime levels generally are low is no help if you are unlucky enough to be a victim yourself!

The message follows:

Suffolk’s Police and Crime Commissioner Tim Passmore is encouraging Suffolk residents to take part in a University Campus Suffolk (UCS) survey to help understand perceptions of crime, anti-social behaviour and local policing services in Suffolk.

Your views are really important so we hope you will find 10 minutes to complete the survey and encourage others to do the same.

A bit of background and a link to the survey are available here:

The results of this survey will feed into a project currently underway to identify where cost savings can be made in light of government cuts to policing budgets.
