Police and Crime Commissioner in Newcastle

Police and Crime Commissioner Matthew Ellis will be hearing about the issues that matter to people in Newcastle on Monday 30 Let's Talk NewcastleJune.

Mr Ellis will hold ‘Let’s Talk’ supermarket surgeries at Sainsbury’s on Liverpool Road between 12noon and 1pm and then Asda in Wolstanton Retail Park from 1.30pm to 2.30pm.

He will then hold an open meeting at Newcastle Civic Offices on Merrial Street between 6pm and 7pm.

The events are the latest opportunity for people to tell Mr Ellis first-hand about crime and local policing and their experience of the criminal justice system. People are invited to come along to discuss any concerns they have about crime, policing and community safety with Mr Ellis – no appointment is needed.

Mr Ellis said: “This is a great opportunity to find out what people in Newcastle and the surrounding areas have to say. I want to hear what people’s experiences are of policing and the criminal justice system.

“It’s not NHS, local authority, CPS or police money…. it’s all public money. We must scrap silo thinking, work to common goals – spend better, achieve more. Newcastle public meeting

“How could things be done better to make sure the system fits the needs of people rather than people having to fit the system?

“These events give local people a chance to shape the future of policing and the criminal justice services for us all.”

Mr Ellis will be returning to the area following similar ‘Let’s Talk’ supermarket events held last month. For more details on ‘Let’s Talk’ visit http://www.staffordshire-pcc.gov.uk/lets-talk/
