Communication and engagement

A communication and engagement strategy for the SLP will be developed during 2025 to 2026. Initially communication and engagement activity will be via the following mechanisms:

  • strategic communication with the public will be delivered via the Lincolnshire Q Collaboration Communication Group. This group brings together a range of agencies to develop and share public facing communication campaigns. This approach ensures that messages received by the public in relation to community safety are consistent and evidence based. Based on findings from the SNA, the initial focus of the SLP’s campaigns will be:
    • addressing the fear and perception of crime
    • signposting to reporting mechanisms
    • striving to increase confidence in local public services through sharing positive news stories
  • as part of the scoping activities for place-based projects we will liaise and engage with local communities and wider stakeholders. This will provide a platform to:
    • actively respond to our communities
    • share timely and relevant information
    • facilitate the development of longer-term community-based solutions
