It is a privilege to serve as your Police and Crime Commissioner. As a resident, I care deeply about our city and county and want to do everything possible to ensure our communities thrive.
Those who live and work in Derby and Derbyshire know their communities best and I would like to harness their skills, experience and knowledge to help our county flourish.
Derbyshire is fortunate to have a wealth of passionate, community-focused organisations who care deeply about helping local people.
We all want to live in communities where we are safe and feel safe. But there is no single solution or agency that can realistically achieve this alone. My approach places value on our people and recognises the invaluable contribution of our many community partners. The priorities in my Police and Crime Plan reflect the views of thousands of residents and businesses from across the City and the County.
