Public consultations

Police and crime commissioner Philip Seccombe is committed to listening and engaging with the public to understand their concerns and issues and ensure that Warwickshire Police is meeting their needs.

As part of his engagement strategy, the Commissioner undertakes a number of consultations each year to take soundings from the public on a variety of topics. Consultations are also carried out in line with statutory obligations.

Details of public consultations undertaken by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC) can be found here.

Public perceptions survey of policing in Warwickshire during the pandemic

The Covid pandemic was a testing time for policing as well as for all of our communities.

It was important that throughout this period of rapidly-changing laws and regulations, we tried to understand how our approach was being perceived by the public.

In April 2020, we commissioned research with Warwickshire residents to gain insight into public perceptions and experiences of policing of the pandemic. A follow-up phone study was conducted in early 2021, supported by an online survey which was open to anyone who lived in, worked in, visited and/or travelled through the Warwickshire force area.
