The next meeting of the Tissington Safer Neighbourhood Policing Meeting will be held for the first time in Parwich, at the Memorial Hall on Monday 13th December at 7pm.
In the minutes of the last meeting, held at Kniveton on 27th September, the group, under Sgt Steve Edwards and PCSO Kate Cleveley discussed ‘Community SpeedWatch’. The scheme is already up and running in many of the villages. Training would be given by the Sgt and then volunteers can use the equipment and fill in the appropriate paperwork. A PCSO would be in attendance to assist. It was pointed out that there would be no enforcement, but a letter is sent out to the driver to inform them of their speed.
This may be of interest to our community and anyone is welcome to attend the next meeting in December. The police chair the meeting and normally various councillors and local residents attend and raise relevant issues.

This was raised at the previous Parwich Parish Council meeting and a notice on the idea of undertaking a Community Speed Watch in Parwich was being drafted in consultation with Kate (PCSO) to put here on the Blog. In discussing the issue and in drafting the notice, care was being taken that no one section of the community felt they were being unfairly targeted.
In the light of the current discussion on the Blog those of us who had volunteered to set up a Community Speed Watch here are concerned that doing it now would not produce proposals that would be supported by all groups of our road users.
However as per my previous comment any one wanting to be included in community/Parish Council moves to look at local road safety can contact me via parwich@hotmail.co.uk or the Parish Council via ppccl@fsmail.net
