Have your say! and help shape funding plans

PFCC Precept Survey for 2026/27

Each year, PFCC Roger Hirst seeks the views of residents, businesses and those who work or travel across the county to help shape funding plans for Essex Police and Essex County Fire & Rescue Service. The survey takes just four minutes to complete and is open until Monday 17th November 2025, with a possible two-week extension.

You can complete the survey here: https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/PFCCSurvey26-27/

Your feedback will help ensure both services remain strong, visible and responsive to the needs of our rural communities. It will also inform discussions at the Police, Fire and Crime Panel meeting in December and be shared with Government and other key partners.
