Milton Keynes City Council, as part of the Safer MK Partnership, is calling on residents and visitors to share their views in the annual Community Safety Survey.
The survey gathers feedback and concerns from the community, which is then used to inform proposals aimed at tackling anti-social behaviour and other local crime concerns.
Results from the survey play a crucial role in shaping community safety measures. In recent years, feedback has helped the city council secure almost £750,000 in funding to enhance safety in the city centre, with the installation of improved street lighting and CCTV.
Concerns about anti-social behaviour have driven improvements such as a new management system for cases, ensuring a swift resolution and better support for victims. The city council is also continuing its work with Thames Valley Police to address violent crime through awareness campaigns and targeted action.
The Community Safety Survey is open until 17 January 2025. It takes just a few minutes to complete and can be accessed via the city council’s website.
“We’re dedicated to working with our partners, local people, and businesses to create a safer, more welcoming Milton Keynes. Your feedback ensures that our resources are directed towards addressing the issues that matter most to you. The results from previous surveys clearly demonstrate the power of community input in delivering meaningful change.”
