By listening to people's views through effective dialogue the Force and Authority can make better informed decisions to help meet community expectations. Our Consultation Strategy provides a broad framework to underpin the wide range of public consultation carried out by both Cleveland Police and Cleveland Police Authority.
The introduction of Neighbourhood Policing and the subsequent launch of the Citizen Focus agenda and the Policing Pledge has strengthened our focus on increasing local communication, consultation and engagement activities to ensure that people have more involvement in their local policing, especially in terms of influencing local policing priorities.
We aim to consult using a broad range of methods to reach as many people as we can, for example with:
- Young People
- Parents
- Elderly
- Disabled
- Minority Groups
- Businesses
- Interested Parties/Special Interest Groups
If you would like to take part in any of our consultation events/activities, please contact the Consultation Officer, Cleveland Police Authority at http://www.clevelandpa.org.uk/ or your local neighbourhood policing team officers.
