PARTICIPANT TESTIMONIALS

The Project Sponsors and Project Delivery Members are grateful to the following individuals for sharing their views and agreeing to have their name and role published in this Final Report:

"Excellent sessions and communication."

Tina Irving
Local Partner working closely with the police
Wick

"The aim of the project is admirable and I am sure some/most want it to be a success but unless resources are available to tackle anti social behaviour then locals won't recognise this as a success."

Andy Selbie
Local Resident
Levenmouth

"The project has been very worthwhile and this type of engagement should be offered throughout the rest of Scotland. Given the recent troubles south of the border, I also see an appreciation for the police in Scotland."

Darren Campbell
Community Group Leader/Member
Wick

"Am glad that residents in my area are being given the chance to have their voices heard. Many people say the Police are unapproachable but I have not found this to be the case."

Shelagh Cooper
Local Resident
Levenmouth

"It was great to find out all that was happening already and have input into how to get that information out to a wider audience and to input new ideas and influences."

Ruan Peat
Local Partner working closely with the police
Wick

"It was really informative on what was being down in my area and to help people understand the various roles the modern force has to deal with. As a lot of people were unaware of all the work that is carried out by the force in the back ground."

Billy Ellwood
Local Partner working closely with the police
Levenmouth

"The project seems to have been fairly well-subscribed with many friends and colleagues reporting that they have contributed. The project will be successful in my eyes if it results in some positive changes in terms of police resources and priorities so our local Bobbies can get down to properly dealing with the things that are harming our communities."

Bryan Dods
Community Group Leader/Member
Wick

"I felt the Project Team were fantastic at communicating with me and kept me up to date all the way through. We had regular e-mails, contact, and popping in to drop off information and update me on where things were."

Craig Hamilton
Local Partner working closely with the police
Irvine-Fullarton

"I was involved in one session and attended with a range of stakeholders, where I felt the views and opinions were very honest and the platform enabled that discussion."

Arlene Campbell
Local Partner working closely with the police
Levenmouth

"I fully support the project and hope to see positive outcomes soon. At present my confidence in the local community police is extremely low."
