Thank you to everyone who has signed this petition so far.

Your support sends a clear message: people in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole want practical solutions, not silence, when it comes to feeling safe in our community.

At this stage, the most important thing supporters can do is share the petition.

• Not to argue.
• Not to provoke debate.
• Simply to let others read it and decide for themselves.

Many residents feel the same concerns but have not seen this yet. Some are hesitant to speak publicly. Sharing helps reach those voices quietly and respectfully.

You can help by:

• Sharing the petition with friends, family or neighbours
• Posting it in local community groups
• Sending it privately to someone who has mentioned safety concerns
• Reassuring people they can read it without signing if they prefer

This petition is not about politics or sides.

It is about recognising and improving a visible community safety resource through engagement, oversight and accountability, rather than removing it altogether.

The more people who see it, the stronger the message to decision-makers that residents want to be heard.

Thank you for standing up for community reassurance, common sense, and the right to feel safe where we live.

Please share if you can.
