Police & Crime Commissioner

Safety in Public Places : In March 2021, the government announced an investment of £25 million into reducing violence against women and girls in public spaces.

The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner have developed a survey that asks for your views and experiences about safety in public spaces across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. The information collected through this survey will inform their application for the funding outlined above to make Hampshire and the Isle of Wight a safer place.

It would be really appreciated if you could fill out the survey, through the following link: https://survey.alchemer.eu/s3/90348979/Safer-Streets-Fund 

The Big Conversation : To find out what young people aged 14-25 think about policing and crime, the Youth Commission hold a Big Conversation gathering feedback from across the Hampshire Constabulary area. If your children are in this age bracket please get them to complete this short feedback form to share their views.

New Forest National Park

Forest organisations are asking for people’s views on key priorities during the next five years for the New Forest National Park.  Working together, New Forest partners have drawn up a draft Partnership Plan to 2026, to secure the future of the New Forest and champion the recovery of the climate, nature and ourselves.

Read the draft Partnership Plan and take part in the online survey at www.newforestnpa.gov.uk/yourfuturenewforest.

Consultation Closes on 3rd September.

Hampshire County Council

• Hampshire Perspectives - Tracking Travel Behaviour : This Hampshire Perspectives survey is all about understanding how and why people make journeys around Hampshire.  It's the start of a survey that Hampshire County Council will be running at intervals over the next few years to help us consider, understand and respond to changes in transport patterns over time, and better support public and community transport operators as part of the Covid-19 recovery in Hampshire. Closing Date 16th July.

• Public Health Services Consultation : This consultation outlines proposals that could enable Hampshire County Council’s Public Health Service to re-focus its ring-fenced budget and deliver savings in the following four service areas:

   • Substance misuse treatment;

  • Stop smoking (known as Smokefree Hampshire);

  • Sexual health;

  • 0-19 Public Health Nursing, which includes health visiting and school nursing.

   Take part at www.hants.gov.uk/public-health-consultation.  Consultation closes on the 9th August.

• Serving Hampshire : Balancing the Budget Consultation : Local authorities are required by law to deliver a balanced budget – which means they cannot spend more than is available. However, growing demand for local services, particularly social care, and the absence of multi-year funding from the Government means that Hampshire County Council continues to face a total budget shortfall of at least £80 million over the next two years (2022/23 and 2023/24). We would like to hear your views on several high-level options that could contribute towards balancing the County Council’s revenue budget.  The Serving Hampshire Balancing the Budget consultation is open from until 11:59pm on Sunday 18 July 2021.
