2.Please take a moment to read the information below before completing the survey.
The Government has announced plans to change the way policing is organised across England and Wales. This could mean potentially significant changes for policing, and it is important that the people of Dorset have the opportunity to make their voices heard.
While we do not yet know what the final proposals will look like, any future decisions should take account of the views and priorities of local communities.
I would encourage residents, businesses and community groups across Dorset to take a few minutes to complete the survey and share their thoughts.
Responses will help build a picture of public opinion on the future of policing and ensure Dorset's perspective is reflected in ongoing conversations about reform.
Please note that the survey closes on the 7th September 2026
