The new Police and Crime Commissioner for Gwent, Jane Mudd, is asking residents for their views on policing.

Commissioner Mudd, who was elected to the role in May, has launched a survey to give residents the opportunity to have their say on policing in their communities.

The information will be used to develop the Commissioner’s Police and Crime Plan, which is the strategic document that all Police and Crime Commissioners must produce to set out the strategic direction for their term in office.

Commissioner Mudd said: “During my campaign to become Police and Crime Commissioner I set out the following priorities:
• Protecting the vulnerable, tackling violence against women and girls, addressing hate crime.
• Focusing commissioning on early intervention and prevention, supporting initiatives aimed at preventing youth crime, supporting victims.
• Supporting campaigns to protect retail and hospitality staff in the workplace.
• Ensuring Gwent Police prioritise tackling serious and organised crime, cracking down on anti-social behaviour.
“I know from conversations on the doorstep that these issues matter to almost everyone in our communities. Now I want to dig deeper and ensure that all residents have an opportunity to have their voices heard.

“Please take the time to complete the survey, have your say, and help me make a difference to our communities.”
