People in Lichfield and Burntwood are being invited to discuss issues with the area’s new local policing commander.
Chief Inspector Paul Cooke has taken on the role with Staffordshire Police and hopes to discover more from residents about issues important to communities.
The engagement events between 10am and 11am on 13th, 14th and 16th September will allow people to walk around the area with him.
Chief Inspector Cooke said:
“We are committed in ensuring our officers are more closely embedded and visible to our local community.
“Our key priorities include improving officer response, ensuring we’re victim focused at all times, improving our management of offenders to reduce harm and ensuring vulnerable people are supported.
“It is important we continue to evolve our understanding of crime affecting our particular communities as well as protect those who live and work in our local areas from harm.”
