At the start of 2020 we launched the Keeping Hounslow Safe Together CommonPlace page to hear what you had to say about crime in Hounslow, what our focus should be for Hounslow’s new Community Safety Strategy and what more we could do to keep our neighbourhoods safe.
The CommonPlace page ran until April and we had almost 200 people contributed to the site!
We also attended public and private events in the local community, to capture your comments, feedback and ideas. We took part in a total of 17 community events to hear what you had to say. The events took place in a variety of venue's up and down the borough, and we tried to capture as many voices as possible.
The events and our CommonPlace page were put on hold in April due to Coronavirus.
Since the Coronavirus pandemic started the world has changed and so has Hounslow. To help us keep Hounslow safe we need to understand the pandemic’s current and future impact on crime and community safety - and we want to hear from you again to help do this.
We will still use all your comments from before the pandemic to inform our new strategy, but we want to know what changes you’ve seen in crime since Coronavirus and if there are any other issues that we need to focus on.
This will make sure that our new Community Safety Strategy reflects the voices of people in Hounslow now, in this extraordinary time we all find ourselves in.
The CommonPlace page will be open again for 4 weeks and we want to as many of you as possible to comment on the web page.
You can click here to comment on the map as many times as you want. The borough is highlighted in purple and you can use the map to pin-point specific locations in Hounslow.
Remember Hands, Face, Space and don’t forget to share the CommonPlace page on social media and with people you know!
Thank you to everyone who has contributed to Keep Hounslow Safe Together so far!
I’m pleased to report that over 500 people have visited the webpage in the first few weeks. We’ve 81 people contribute to the page and we want lots more people to have their say on crime and community safety in Hounslow.
It would be really great if you could spread the word to your family, friends and neighbours... and encourage them to get involved! You can also share details of the project through email, WhatsApp, Facebook or Twitter – all the links are on the project homepage.
So far the Community Safety Team has been to 15 community meetings across the borough, capturing people’s views from Bedfont to Chiswick. We have more meetings coming up in the next few weeks, click here to find out when we will be in your area .
Finally, a few people have asked whether this is our consultation on the Community Safety Strategy. We're using Commonplace and the community meetings as engagement to find out what you would like us to focus on.. The feedback you give us will be used to inform our draft Community Safety Strategy 2020-2023. The draft strategy will then go out to consultation later in the year before being finalised.
Have great day and don't forget to share the Commonplace link with people you know!
