PEOPLE in Wiltshire are being given the opportunity to express their views on how the county is policed.

The Home Office has produced a questionnaire to help pinpoint local policing needs.

A statement from the Home Office said: "By responding to the Home Office questionnaire, Wiltshire citizens will have an opportunity to comment upon the initiatives already carried out by their county force as well as make a valuable contribution towards the future policing services they will receive."

Wiltshire police already has a number of community policing initiatives such as the Bobby Van scheme to help burglary victims and projects to tackle anti-social behaviour.

The questionnaire can be accessed at www.policereform.
