Already, more than 2,300 people have put forward their views and ideas to the PCC and now he wants to hear from even more people in the region as he shapes his plan for policing in the West Midlands.

The PCC wants to hear what people’s priorities are, what crimes they are most concerned about and their views on the way the police is funded.

Simon Foster has already committed to ensuring 450 new police officers are recruited and deployed to local communities across the region. He also wants to crack down on knife crime and domestic abuse. But his Police and Crime Plan will set out a much wider range of policy objectives and the PCC wants to hear the views of the public before writing it.

The consultation runs until 10am on 14th September 2021.
