One of Barrow’s Neighbourhood Policing Team want to hear from local people at a meeting next week about what they think should be on the top of the policing agenda in their area.
In a bid to encourage residents to help shape policing priorities in their area, officers and PCSO's from the Barrow 3 team, which covers the town centre area, are holding a Safer, Stronger Community meeting on Monday 25 January so that local people get the chance to raise their concerns and highlight the issues that they want tackled.
The meeting starts at 7pm in the Central and Hindpool Neighbourhood Management Offices on Dalton Road.
Inspector David Bosson said: “Part of our policing pledge to the community is to increase our visibility and make sure we tackle the issues that matter most in each neighbourhood.
“This meeting will give us the chance to find out from local people what they see are the main issues on Barrow Central, so that we can then work to find solutions to those problems.
“Our main aim is to ensure that local people are confident that we are working hard to make their communities safer and for them to have a say in how their neighbourhood is policed.”
The Safer, Stronger Community meetings are also a great opportunity for local people to get to know their local officers, share your thoughts/ideas and directly influence what local officers do and how they work. Inspector Bosson and members of the policing team will be on hand to chat or answer any questions.
The meetings are just one of a number of opportunities that your Neighbourhood Policing Team will provide for you to have your say. Anyone who is unable to attend and would like to share their views or just speak to their local community officer can contact the community team by popping into the police station or calling 0845 33 00 247.
