Colchester Public Meeting - Thursday, October 11

Do you want to know the latest on crime trends and proactive policing operations in the Colchester District? Do you have a question for Essex County Fire and Rescue Service’s senior team? If so, make a date in your diary to come to a public meeting in Colchester, organised by Roger Hirst, the Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Essex. The meeting is taking place on Thursday, October 11, between 6.30pm and 8pm at the Town Hall, High Street, Colchester CO1 1PJ.

Mr Hirst said: “Public meetings are a great way to hear directly from local communities about concerns they might have and areas of activity that are in place and working well. Very often a joint approach is the answer to a problem. I hold regular public meetings across the county and with a panel of experts on hand, these meetings are a great way to find the solutions together. Do come along whether you have criticisms, compliments or constructive comments to make. We want to hear them all because your voices matter.”

Roger Hirst will be chairing the meeting and will be joined by Deputy Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner Jane Gardner, Chief Inspector Shaun Kane, the District Commander for Colchester, as well as representatives from Essex County Fire and Rescue Service and the local Community Safety Partnership.
