Tell Tracy about Policing and Crime

Share your views on our public consultation on a new Police and Crime Plan for West Yorkshire.

Take part in our consultation

#TellTracy about Policing and Crime

This consultation on my second Police and Crime Plan is your opportunity to tell me what policing issues matter most to you, so together we can bring about long-term lasting change to West Yorkshire.

Once completed the plan will set out my policing priorities and the direction of West Yorkshire Police over the next four years so it’s vital we hear from everybody, from members of the public to our partners, stakeholders, organisations and businesses.

At the same time we are seeking your views to inform the development of a new Serious Violence strategy for West Yorkshire. I want to hear from individuals and communities affected by serious violent crime, especially including those who feel underrepresented or unheard.

My goal is to make this consultation, which runs until 31 October, as inclusive as possible. Here you can find out more about all the different ways you can be involved and share your views with us, either online, in person, at events, or over the phone.

Please can I urge you to take the time to either complete one of our surveys or send us your views directly and tell us how my new plan can reflect your priorities.

Thank you.
