The Government has proposed merging police forces creating fewer and larger ones across England and Wales which is a significant change that could impact local policing, visibility and accountability.

While an independent Review is underway, it is not actively seeking public input, which is why they are asking you to share your views.

The short survey gives you the opportunity to have your say on what these changes could mean for your community, including potential benefits and risks.

Take Part because your views will help inform the Commissioner's response to the Independent Review and ensure that the perspective of Kent residents is reflected as decisions are considered at national level.
