Officers from Swadlincote Safer Neighbourhood Team held a successful ‘Safer Together’ event on The Delph yesterday (June 27).

Working with partners from the Fire Service, South Derbyshire District Council and South Derbyshire CVS and supported by the Roads Policing Unit, our SNT officers were on hand to provide crime prevention advice as well as encouraging people to sign up to Derbyshire Alert.

PCSO Supervisor Kerry Wallington-Waite said:

“We’ve had a great response this morning from the shoppers of Swadlincote. We’ve handed out van and shed alarms, purse bells and personal attack alarms - and the CVS’s Safer Homes scheme has had plenty of referrals. It is always good to work with our partners at events such as these to give prevention advice and support to those who need it.”

The event was part of the new ‘Safer Together’ campaign, which marks new investment in the force that will see 120 new posts created working to improve police presence in neighbourhoods and bolster investigations.

The investment came after consultation with the public revealed they were willing to pay extra in council tax to fund an increase in police resources in neighbourhoods.

Recruitment to the new roles is under way with posts all due to be in place by the end of July.

Investment will also be put towards improving road safety and providing greater support to vulnerable people, including those in mental health crisis.
