Hampshire Constabulary has worked hard over the last eighteen months to improve its response to rural policing. In order to assess the progress made to date and to identify specific areas for future improvement we are inviting members of rural communities throughout Hampshire and the Isle Of Wight to participate in the attached survey.
It will take approximately five minutes to complete. The answers will be collated and analysed to better inform our activities in rural communities and our response to rural policing in the future. Thank you for your time.
