Police Consultation

As noted earlier this past weekend the local police have been busy completing surveys on local people’s views on crime and disorder issues.

For the two sessions that took place on the estate they seemed to be a steady flow of locals who were nabbed for the questionnaire, and I understand from talking to the beat team members doing the survey that there time in Glossop was as busy with local willing to go through the survey.

In terms of the Gamesley results they will help reflect the work of the forthcoming ‘beat sweep’ which will take place in October. If you’ve not heard of a beat sweep before, it’s essentially the same process as what we carried out in Hadfield last year.

Essentially the police look to concentrate along with other agencies such as the council, housing etc in one particular area for a week or so, to address problems that locals have raised mainly of a crime and disorder nature, but also other issues that affect quality of life, such as street cleaning, graffiti etc.

Further details will be posted on the range of events that will take place during the beat sweep shortly, but if you would like to add your views into to last weekend’s survey please contact the beat team either via the HPCH office on Winster Mews or by phone on 0345 113 3333
