- Nottinghamshire Police budget and precept participatory gorups (one Women's group, one group with members from Black, Minority, Ethnic and Refugee communities, one group with Nottingham City residents and three gorups with County residents).
The aim of the Priority Plus Area survey and any supporting face to face interviews are to widen the understanding of the potential and support for residents to identify those local needs, including existing and emergent needs, and ideas to improve safety and quality of life in their neighbourhoods. This piece of work will also complement the City and County’s Annual Surveys used by the Commissioner as part of the Police and Crime Needs Assessment, by providing a ‘deep dive’ into the issues that matter and are of concern to residents within the Priority Plus Areas.
