Derbyshire Police want to meet and listen to the local Communities and their Derbyshire Police want to meet and listen to the local Communities and their Representatives, so we can find out what concerns the local people. Along with other Agencies we can then deal with those concerns and continue to improve the quality of life across our area.
Whilst we try to speak with Parish Councillors, Neighbourhood Watch Coordinators, local Schools, and members of the public, this tends to be done with the individual groups. We want to try and get people from different groups, and the general public, to meet together, to discuss concerns, and then work together to resolve any problems. The aim is to try and do this by having Community Forums, one on each Beat.
This is a further opportunity to influence how your area is policed, and to share ideas with other parties, including people from other villages within the Beat. Other Agencies will be involved, such as the County Council, District Council, Peak Park and Fire and Ambulance Services.
As I have explained before our area has been ‘christened’ the Tissington Safer Neighbourhood Team. Let me stress that it is purely because Tissington is in the centre of our area, which includes Mappleton, Thorpe, Fenny Bentley, Parwich, Bradbourne, Ballidon, Kniveton, Alsop en le Dale, and towards Pikehall.
We are hoping to have Simon TRANTER, Derbyshire County Council Traffic & Safety Manager for our area, attending.
Our area is widespread and I understand that some concerns to residents of Mappleton may have no relevance to those at Alsop en le Dale. However it may well be one village can learn from another’s experience, and we can all benefit by getting together.
If you wish to talk to me about the idea, please contact me on 0845 123 33 33, or call in to Ashbourne Police Station. Everyone is welcome to attend.
