Your feedback

Help shape the future of policing in London

Tell us how you want to access police services and influence the future of local policing in your area in an online survey. You can complete the anonymous survey here.

The survey is part of a review being carried out by the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) into the different ways in which you can contact police and access our services. These range from telephone, online and face-to-face methods, including via police stations and appointments.

The survey aims to find out which of the many channels you currently use to contact us and after learning about the variety of ways that exist, the survey poses the question would you choose a different way of accessing police services in future.

Territorial Policing Assistant Commissioner (AC) Ian McPherson, said: “In these challenging financial times, it is essential that the MPS makes best use of available resources. This is one of the key aims of the review that will ensure we can deliver an efficient and cost effective service in the right place at the right time. It is important we look to meet the needs of a modern and diverse London and this process is an endeavour to do so.”

We will use the results of the survey to develop a strategy to maintain and enhance public access to policing services within a core minimum standard. No decisions have yet been made and any changes will only take place with the approval of the most senior officers and staff who form the MPS Management Board and the Metropolitan Police Authority (MPA), an independent governing body that holds the MPS to account.

AC McPherson added: “The survey will also be supported by a period of consultation with local partners and stakeholders, such as councils, Independent Advisory Groups and Neighbourhood Watch schemes. The views of our partners and the public are key to any decisions made as to how services should be delivered in the future.”

To have your say complete the survey here by Friday 10th June . Your views are important to us and will help us improve our services to better meet your needs.
