Derby City Council is encouraging people who live in, work in, or visit Derby to share their views on safety in the city by participating in the Community Safety Survey. Now live on the Let’s Talk Derby website, the survey, which is open until December, seeks to gather feedback on how safe people feel in the city centre and their local areas.

The survey is a part of the Council’s ongoing commitment to making Derby a safe place to live, work and visit. The results will ensure that residents’ concerns are addressed and will help to shape future initiatives to improve public safety in Derby.

With questions ranging from how safe residents feel walking in their local area to asking what measures help them feel safe, it is estimated to take 10-15 minutes to complete and will help the Council to better understand the key issues relating to public safety.

Councillor Ndukwe Onuoha, Cabinet Member for Streetpride, Public Safety and Leisure said:

Public Safety is a top priority for the Council. We have been working hard to create a safe city for all, and we want to ensure that every resident feels safe, whether in the city centre or their local area.

I encourage all members of the community to take part in this survey. The feedback that we gather will help us to improve the safety and wellbeing of residents and visitors in Derby. Together, we can create a safe city for all.

The survey is available to view on the Let’s Talk Derby website. All responses are confidential, and residents are encouraged to take part before the survey closes at midnight 22 December.
