A message from Dan Price, Cheshire Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC)
You elected me to be your voice in policing in Cheshire. When it comes to decision making on your police service, I am here to make sure your opinions are heard and taken into account.
As PCC, I have a responsibility each year to set the amount of police funding that will be generated through your council tax payments, known as the policing precept.
The Home Office has promised more neighbourhood police officers but due to rising costs, inflation and the increased complexity and demand on the police, pressure is building on services. Efficiencies and savings have been made but we’re still experiencing a budget shortfall.
I’m asking for your views on what you’d be willing to pay in 2025-26 for your police service.
I know that policing, crime prevention, early intervention and community safety are important to Cheshire’s residents.
However, I am also aware of the financial pressures that many households face as we continue to navigate the cost-of-living crisis.
I hope you can spare around two minutes of your time to answer the following questions to help me make the right decision for Cheshire.
The deadline for responses is 12noon on Monday 20th January 2025.
Thank you
