People living in West Mercia share their views on the force performance

Latest perceptions data shows increase in police visibility

More residents are seeing West Mercia Police out in their communities according to the latest results from my quarterly perceptions survey. 

From the period of July to September this year, a fifth of residents from across the three counties said they saw a police officer or PCSO at least weekly. A 4% rise when compared to the same period in 2024.  

This reflects my investment and commitment to deliver record numbers of police officers, as detailed in my West Mercia Safer Communities Plan.

Overall confidence in the force has also remained steady at 80%.
