Poole Safe Together Partnership Focus Group

Poole Safe Together Partnership are setting up a focus group to consult on crime and substance misuse issues in Poole. We are looking for a wide variety of people who live or work in Poole to share their views about crime and drugs.

Poole’s new Crime and Drugs Strategy, running from 2005 – 2008 identified priority areas that the group will discuss. The Strategy can be viewed on the Borough of Poole’s website, www.boroughofpoole.com. You don’t need to have been affected by any of our crime and drugs priorities; we are still interested in your views.

The focus group will have the opportunity to express their opinions and feelings about these issues and influence what is done to tackle them. 15 – 20 people will meet every 3 months for 2 hours at a time to suit you. Transport costs will be provided if needed.

The first group, to be held in July, will address Poole’s Anti-Social Behaviour Procedure, which is currently under review; Have we got it right? How could we do better? The meetings will cover a variety of topics, such as policing issues, arson and violent crime.

If you would like further details of the focus group and an application form to participate, please contact the Partnership and Performance Team on 01202 633011 or email safetogether@poole.gov.uk.
