Residents invited to attend the Safer Neighbourhood Board meeting this July

Residents are invited to attend the next Richmond upon Thames Safer Neighbourhood Board (SNB) meeting, taking place at York House in Twickenham on Thursday 9 July at 7pm.

The Safer Neighbourhood Board brings together local police, partners and the community to help shape policing and community safety priorities across the borough.

The Richmond SNB is part of a London-wide network, established by the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC), to ensure residents have a voice in decisions that affect their neighbourhoods.

At the meeting, attendees will hear from Richmond’s new Police Superintendent, Dan Cooper, and receive updates from Detective Inspector Sophie Howell on volume crime in the borough. There will also be an update on how local Safer Neighbourhood Team is tackling anti-social behaviour.

Residents will have the opportunity to ask questions and raise concerns during a dedicated Q&A session.

The meeting is open to everyone and there is no need to register in advance. Visitors are asked to check in at York House reception on arrival. Refreshments, including tea, coffee and biscuits, will be available.

The meeting is expected to finish at around 9pm.
