Let's Talk Community Safety Crawley

As part of the Let’s Talk Community Safety Crawley, we think it is important to know the concerns for residents in Crawley regarding drugs misuse and its effects in the community.

We are asking for the views and experiences of people from Crawley, and their concern and opinion about issues related to drug use.

A multi-agency working group, are working to support individuals and communities to overcome the issues which can lead to cycles of continued drug use. A series of activities are already underway, and we need to better understand the lives of residents in the area, so that more targeted support can be put in place.

This is part of the West Sussex Combating Drugs partnership to tackle the drug demand in West Sussex and minimise the harm and exploitation caused by drugs. Following this approach, WSCC and Safer Crawley Partnership have been working together to carry out this survey for residents in Crawley where we will be able to understand resident's opinion and their experience of drug misuse in the community.

Some of the questions ask about sensitive issues surrounding drug use, but we will not use your responses to identify you or attempt to contact you in any way. You do not have to answer any questions you do not want to, and your responses will not affect any service provision you currently receive. The WSCC Public Health and Social Research Unit will analyse all the completed surveys and produce a report containing the results.
