The West Midlands Police and Crime Commissioner, Simon Foster, is asking the public what matters most to them and what they want him and the force to prioritise, to prevent and tackle crime in the region.
On Sunday, Simon Foster, will launch his three-month consultation at the Birmingham Mela. The consultation will enable him to write his Police and Crime Plan.
The Plan helps set the strategic direction for West Midlands Police.
The Police and Crime Commissioner has said publicly he wants to focus on a number of key areas, including rebuilding community policing, tackling violence with a particular focus on knife crime, making our roads safer and reducing neighbourhood crimes like burglary and car theft. However, his Police and Crime Plan will be much more wide ranging.
The three-month Consultation starts this Sunday and ends mid-October.
The public are being asked to fill out an online survey, which takes around six minutes to complete, with the results used to write the Commissioner’s four-year plan.

The West Midlands Police and Crime Commissioner, Simon Foster, said: “To be re-elected by the people of the West Midlands and to serve as your Police and Crime Commissioner for another four-year term is a real honour.
“Now we have to work together, to make sure West Midlands Police is prioritising what matters most to you and what you want the force to prioritise, to prevent and tackle crime in the region.
“My pledge to you is that I will listen to your feedback and use it to form the basis of my Police and Crime Plan.”
