Open Ward Panel Meeting : Thu 24 Sep 19:00

Dear Residents of Shirley North and South wards,

Your local policing team invite you to join our next Ward Panel Meeting: 

What is a Ward Panel?

A Ward Panel is a community-led group where local residents meet regularly with our Safer Neighbourhood Team (SNT) made up of dedicated police officers and PCSOs assigned to your area. Ideally chaired by a volunteer, the panel reviews local crime trends and discusses issues like antisocial behaviour, crime, or safety concerns. Together, we set priorities and action plans to address what matters most to you.

What We Aim to Achieve

The Ward Panel is your chance to:

Share your concerns and ideas to shape local policing priorities.

Collaborate with the police to tackle community issues.

Build trust and transparency through open dialogue.

Your voice matters! By attending, you’ll help ensure local policing reflects our community’s needs. No prior experience is needed—just a desire to make a difference.

If you have any concerns that you wish to discuss then please feel free to respond to this message prior to the meeting and we will seek to discuss them at the meeting. Alternatively if it can not be discussed in the open forum of the meeting then one of the team will be able to discuss after the meeting.

If you are unable to attend and wish to notify us of your local concerns, then please make sure you complete the Local Matters Survey

We look forward to seeing you there!
