The online survey has been designed by the IOPC’s youth board who say it is based on “the issues we find important and what areas of police contact we think it would be valuable to gain more understanding of”.

It aims to:

Understand young people’s lived experiences of policing.

Examine trust in policing and police complaints.

Look into local differences across England and Wales.

Involve young people in developing future solutions.

The survey is open to those aged 13 to 25.

Following the completion of the survey, the results will be published in a report to inform the youth panel’s work in creating national recommendations for reforming policing practices, and will be shared with policing stakeholders, locally and nationally.
