Police Scotland recognises the importance of understanding the views and priorities of Scotland's diverse communities. This is especially important during the ongoing Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. I have been asked as part of our national survey, to share this. We are carrying out this survey to provide a platform for those in all our communities to have their voice heard during these challenging times, and beyond.

The feedback from the survey aims to capture people's feeling of safety and any concerns they have which we can address operationally and through our information campaigns. The survey will also capture feedback from those who have contacted us during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Fully recognising the additional demands at this time, not least those agencies involved with the NHS and Health & Social Care provision, and without seeking to add to those, can I respectfully request that this survey be shared and highlighted, as is appropriate given ongoing demands, with partners and community groups aligned to our respective Community Planning Partnerships in Aberdeen City, Aberdeenshire and Moray.

The survey which takes about 10 minutes to complete can be accessed via the link below.
