The survey helps us identify the key issues in the community. Even if you have previously completed the survey, local issues change so the more responses we receive, the better understanding we have of what matters to you. This will help us to know where to focus our attention. Please complete the survey yourselves, and forward to your friends, family, or any clubs, groups or organisations you may be part of.

As we are only a small Neighbourhod team, we rely heavily on the eyes and ears of the community to provide us with information to help make Barton a safer place to live.
