Results of the PCC's Violence Against Women and Girls Survey
In August 2021, Kent’s Police and Crime Commissioner, Matthew Scott, launched a survey to find out the extent of violence and abuse being perpetrated against women and girls in Kent, including online.
He also wanted to know how safe women and girls felt in different aspects of their lives.
The questionnaire was open for 3 months, during which time 8,263 people filled it in. This is an unprecedented number of respondents for a questionnaire launched by the PCC and attracted answers from all age groups and ethnicities. Anyone over the age of 16 was invited to respond. Just over 93% of those who did were women, with just over 3.5% men.
The full results are published below.
