Petersfield is broken down into various wards (as defined by council wards) and is policed by a team from Petersfield Police Station. For the latest updates from your local Policing Team please sign up to Hampshire Alerts by visiting https://www.hampshirealert.co.uk Your local Butser Neighbourhood Policing Team needs your help in setting the Local Community Policing Priorities for your area for the next 3 months. In order to ensure that we are working effectively in the community, we need you to tell us what issues are affecting you the most. Our aim is to reduce Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) and crime and increase confidence in the Police as well as to make your neighbourhood a safer place to live and work. All we ask is that you spare 5 minutes to follow the below link and complete this survey. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ButserSurveyDecember2015
