Help shape a safer Buckinghamshire – community safety survey now open

How can we make Buckinghamshire safer? That’s the question the Safer Buckinghamshire Partnership is once again asking residents, workers, businesses and students across the county as it launches its 2025 Safer Buckinghamshire Survey.

The Safer Buckinghamshire Partnership is a multi-agency partnership that brings together experts from the police, fire service, probation, health, and social care services to tackle crime and improve community safety.

Building on the insights from last year’s survey and the ongoing Safer Buckinghamshire Strategy 2023–26, the partnership is now seeking views to help shape its priorities and actions for the coming year. The survey focuses on:

• The impact of crime and anti-social behaviour in local communities
• Experiences of reporting crime or anti-social behaviour
• How safe or unsafe people feel living, working, or studying in Buckinghamshire

The survey is open to anyone who lives, works, or studies in Buckinghamshire and will run until 3 October 2025.

Steve Bowles, Buckinghamshire Council’s Cabinet Member for Communities, said:

“Buckinghamshire continues to be a safe and welcoming place, but we know there are areas and times where issues arise. This survey will provide us with vital insight into the real experiences of our communities. Your feedback helps us understand what matters most and where we need to focus our efforts. It only takes a few minutes to complete, and your voice really will make a difference.”
