We asked: 

The PACT (Partners And Communities Together) meetings for your area are held on the First Tuesday of each month between 6pm and 7pm at Oxspring Bank Community Centre, Oxspring Bank.  This is your chance to meet members of your local Safer Neighbourhood Team and discuss issues that are important to you in the area you live. By attending the meetings and having your say, you can directly influence how the Police and our Partners work in your area.

Your Next PACT Meeting is at Oxspring Bank Community Centre, Oxspring Bank on Tuesday 2nd August 2011 at 6pm until 7pm.

What if I can’t attend a PACT meeting? 

You can still get involved! Open the GET IN TOUCH section, which is situated on YOUR AREA site and e-mail your team with detail of what you want them to know. They will then keep you updated about what they are planning to do about it.

We have been stopping and engaging with any groups of youths in the area. If any of the youths have been causing anti-social behaviour we have been taking their details and starting the process with Parent Advisory Letters, which are the warnings before Anti-social Behaviour Contracts.

Local officers have spoken and taken details from 18 people in the local area involved in anti-social behaviour, some of which have been dealt with by parent advisory letters (PAL letters). 

Officers executed a drugs warrant on Penrith Road resulting in 1 male arrested for drug cultivation with intent to supply.

Also, local PCSO's whilst on high visibility foot patrols within the local area have found on average 103 vehicles which were left with items on display making them vulnerable to be broken into. Letters sent out to vehicle owners making them aware of this.
