Time Running Out For Community Sentiment Survey

Victoria Police is reminding Victorians to have their say on what more the force can do to improve local community safety.

Time is running out to complete the Victoria Police Community Sentiment Survey – with only a few days left until it closes on midnight on 31 May.

More than 10,000 people have so far completed the survey.

It’s aimed at ensuring the force remains agile, responsive and visible in addressing local community safety needs.

People of all backgrounds who live, work or socialise in Victoria can take part.

Respondents are asked about their local community safety concerns, recent interactions and engagement preferences with police and what more police can do to deter local crime.

Results are used as part of Victoria Police’s back-to-basics Neighbourhood Policing initiative to help police develop local responses to key community safety issues.

When issues are more complex police work with local councils, community groups and government agencies.

Police are sharing updates on their progress through local Eyewatch pages.

The survey is quick, anonymous and can be completed on the Engage Victoria website with accessible survey formats available this year.

A summary of results will be published on the Engage Victoria website with local summaries to be available on local Eyewatch pages.
