The RGP wishes to thank everyone who responded to last month’s survey of Female Safety.  Over 320 completed surveys were received, with most responses coming from women in the 35 – 44 age group.

The data contained within all the responses is proving to be extremely useful.

Some of the headline statistics were as follows:

•           70.2% of those surveyed felt that Gibraltar is safer than Spain.

•           69% of those surveyed felt that Gibraltar is safer than the UK.

•           62% of women surveyed responded positively to feeling safer when in public spaces if there was a police presence.

The RGP will now analyse the concerns raised by individual respondents and, where necessary, will discuss these concerns with Her Majesty’s Government of Gibraltar and with other stakeholders.
