HAVE your say on the future direction of Devon and Cornwall Police as a public consultation is launched.

‘This is your chance to influence my third Police and Crime Plan, a strategy which sets out the strategic direction for Devon & Cornwall Police and the services I commission’ said Police and Crime Commissioner Alison Hernandez.

‘Since I came to office crime in 2016 much has been achieved.

‘I have worked with others to establish partnerships to tackle dangerous driving and violence and set budgets which have allowed record police officer numbers to be recruited and police enquiry desks to be reopened in 13 communities’ Ms Hernandez said.

The closing date for the consultation is midnight on Sunday, October 27.

‘My work is influenced by your views – and my draft 2025-29 Police and Crime Plan is designed to tackle the issues that matter most to you – antisocial behaviour, drug and alcohol misuse, violence and theftin your town and city centres, in your countryside and rural areas, on your roads and in your homes and neighbourhoods’ Ms Hernandez said.

‘Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey.

‘Together we will build safe, resilient, connected communities where everyone plays their part’ Ms Hernandez said.
