WIRRAL residents are being given a chance to share their views and feedback on policing issues during an event next month.
Merseyside’s Police and Crime Commissioner Emily Spurrell is holding a surgery in Leasowe on Wednesday, October 16 from 2.30pm and 4.30pm.
It is a chance for Emily to meet residents face-to-face and in confidence and respond to any questions or concerns they have about the performance or oversight of Merseyside Police.
The Commissioner and her team will work with residents to identify the best route for their enquiry and discuss any action that can be taken or supported by her office.
Appointments for the PCC surgery must be booked in advance.
Merseyside’s Police Commissioner Emily Spurrell said: "I'm committed to being a strong voice on behalf of people across our fantastic region, ensuring their views are at the heart of my work, as well as local policing and community safety.
"These regular advice surgeries are a great way to hear directly from local communities about any views or concerns they have and are a key way I can ensure I am as accessible as possible to residents of Merseyside.
“I would encourage anyone with views or concerns about policing, crime and community safety across our region to get in touch and book a slot at one of these monthly surgeries. I want to hear your views and ensure your voice is heard on local issues.
“These surgeries are just part of the wider work that I’m undertaking to raise awareness of the role of PCC and make sure I’m alive to the views and opinions of local people.”
Surgeries are by appointment only, to ensure that the issues being raised relate to policing, crime or community safety, and to ensure the PCC is fully briefed on the issue prior to the meeting.
The PCC will not be able to consider complaints about police officers, member of police staff, police community support officers or special constables, as this is a matter for Merseyside Police.
Residents are invited to request a 15-minute appointment by contacting the PCC’s office with their name, contact information and what they would like to discuss during the meeting, by:
- Calling (0151) 777 5155
- Emailing info@merseysidepcc.info
- Writing to: Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner, Mather Avenue Training Centre, Mather Avenue, Liverpool, L18 9TG
