Face The People

One of the requirements for the SaferPeterborough partnership, which has been set by the Home Office, is to carry out two consultation exercises with the public each calendar year.

The Face The People consultations usually form part of a larger local event in Peterborough where there is a large draw of people from different communities, backgrounds and ages.

There are lots of organisations that put on public meetings, but the partnership is not expecting people to come to it – instead it goes to them.

High-ranking decision makers from the partnership attend these events (usually part of the Peterborough Festival and the Christmas Lights switch-on) and talk with you, members of the public, about how they feel about living in their communities, what they would like to see improved and what priorities they think SaferPeterborough should focus on.

The data captured is used to devise campaigns that focus on specific areas you have pointed out is a concern to them. The consultation results are used as comparative data for future Face The People events.

UPDATE: 5 March 2013 A Government minister has praised Peterborough for helping victims of domestic violence get justice. See full press release and video here. 
UPDATE: 12 February 2013 There has been a spate of fires being set in wheelie bins, discarded furniture and some vehicles, across the city. We have teamed up with other agencies, including the fire service to tackle this problem. You can help to prevent these types of offences, by ensuring that wheelie bins are not left in the street after collection, or if they are full, kept in a safe place until they can be emptied. Report any discarded furniture to the local authority so they can make arrangements to collect it. We are also working with youths both in and out of schools to educate them about the dangers of setting fires and asking them to be vigilant when out and about. Please report any suspicious activity around fires to the Police on 101.
