LGBT+ community survey will test levels of trust and confidence in the Police and Council.
B&H LGBT CSF is an established independent LGBT forum of eight elected unpaid volunteers working with the LGBT Communities across the city to address and improve safety and access issues throughout Brighton & Hove.
They undertake cultural, educational and social safety community activities and all types of LGBT+ community/inclusion and accessibility initiatives.
B&H LGBT CSF was formed to give the LGBT+ communities a much needed voice on a wide range of safety issues in Brighton and Hove.
They exist to act as a bridge between the LGBT+ communities and statutory service providers such as the City Council and Sussex Police and to enable there to be more accountability and transparency of the services provided.
It is a forum where members of the public can have their say and ask direct questions to those organisations and public figures responsible for community safety in Brighton and Hove.
They also exist to bring together the numerous other LGBT groups across the city under the one umbrella of Community Safety and Inclusion.
This short survey is about your Trust in the Police and Council services (including the Partnership Community Safety Team), and your confidence in reporting issues around abuse, discrimination and your safety within Brighton and Hove, in educational establishments, care services and private businesses or at home.
There is a series of multiple-choice questions about your experiences followed by some optional questions all about you.
Chair of the B&H LGBT CSF Billie Lewis, said: “All personal information given is strictly confidential, will not be shared with third parties and will not be kept with your answers.
“This is a very important piece of community engagement work and your views are important to us.”
