22 October 2024 PCC & Chief Constable host on-line meeting to discuss policing in Suffolk In the last of a series of public meetings, the Police and Crime Commissioner, Tim Passmore and Chief Constable, Rachel Kearton are hosting an on-line meeting to discuss local policing and answer questions from the public. The ON-LINE MEETING will be held on Wednesday November 6 at 6pm via Microsoft Teams. Please email spcc@suffolk.police.uk to register and an invite will be sent through via email in advance of the meeting. Tim Passmore, Suffolk’s Police and Crime Commissioner said: “Policing is such an important public service and it is imperative that the public have an opportunity to have their say. I do hope people will accept this invite to come and find out more about policing in Suffolk. “The Chief Constable and I will give an update on policing in the county and there will be ample opportunity to ask questions and make comments, if people wish to do so. We will be pleased to discuss any matter that arises.” Chief Constable Rachel Kearton said: “I always look forward to conducting this round of meetings with the PCC where we get to hear first-hand the issues that the public want to raise with us. “Our new operating model for local policing has been in place for over nine months now. The purpose was to strengthen community links with the public and ensure that our officers’ work is in line with the core mission of policing to tackle the crime and anti-social behaviour that most disrupt our communities. “Early feedback has clearly shown that our new model has strengthened the way we engage with local communities and I am keen to hear if this remains the case by listening to the issues raised at these meetings, so please have your say.”
