Lancashire’s police and crime commissioner has shared the results from a recent survey that shows a desire fo extra police on the beat and a focus on serious crime.

The survey, aimed at informing the priorities in Andrew Snowden’s new Police and Crime Plan, saw a record response from Lancashire residents. Over 5,000 people replied with their views, priorities and suggestions which will now help shape the policing priorities for Lancashire going forward.

More than 90 per cent of residents listed serious crime as a high priority and just under 80 per cent want to see a focus on anti-social behaviour and patrols of areas with regular reports of crime.
