Have your say on police
People living in Renfrewshire are being urged to give their views on policing in their area.
Police Scotland launched a survey earlier this year - Your Police 2020-2021 - which asks communities across the country to give their opinions on the police’s response to coronavirus within their region.
It also includes questions on public confidence in the police and the perception of crime in local areas.
The survey is the largest of its kind in the UK to involve the public in a conversation about policing and coronavirus.
Tens of thousands of responses have been received so far and the feedback is being used to inform decisions on policing in communities across Renfrewshire every week.
Chief Superintendent Alan Murray, Renfrewshire and Inverclyde divisional commander, said: “The survey is open throughout the year to help us identify and understand people’s opinions of their local police service, as well as any concerns about safety and wellbeing in their area.
“During these challenging times and beyond, I would strongly urge people to take the time now to give us your views and opinions as your feedback will ensure that our approaches to policing are relevant and supporting the communities we serve.
“We have maintained a strong level of public confidence in Scottish policing over the past few months and we value the strong relationships we have with our communities.
“The survey takes no longer than ten minutes to complete and your participation can play a crucial role in shaping our services for Renfrewshire and beyond.”
People can complete the survey over the phone by calling 07717 150 296 and leaving a message.
