Public confidence is a central principle of establishing safer and stronger communities. For that reason the need to reduce the fear of crime has been incorporated in to the Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Neighbourhood Policing Strategy and Leicestershire's Local Area Agreement, Safer Communities block (2006-2009).
At a local level these reports aim to 1) disseminate relevant crime information and 2) further consider the fear of crime debate.
The reports are based upon findings from Leicestershire's Citizens' Panel questionnaire (Wave 8). The questionnaire covers several themes including localised opinion about crime levels in 2005 and predicted crime levels in 2006; a behavioural question about adopted avoidance tactics; a question unpacking 'fear of victimisation'; and, a question reporting upon perceptions of the neighbourhood.
A report is available containing the results for each district within Leicestershire:
