Commissioner encourages residents to sign up to police messaging service
Police and Crime Commissioner Jane Mudd is encouraging residents to sign up to Gwent Police’s online messaging service, Neighbourhood Matters.
Neighbourhood Matters is a free community messaging and engagement service that enables residents to receive localised updates from their neighbourhood policing team.
The service also allows residents to have their say on local policing priorities and respond directly to officers’ updates. It complements the face to face engagement that police officers and community support officers carry out every day across Gwent’s five local authority areas.
Jane Mudd said: “Residents regularly tell me they want more information about what is happening in their local area. They also want to be able to comment on local issues and report information about things that concern them.
“The Chief Constable and I have both committed to a more visible policing service here in Gwent and I am pleased to see officers regularly out in our communities speaking to residents. Neighbourhood Matters complements this work, enabling residents to receive regular updates and report issues directly to their local policing team. It encourages a better flow of information between communities and the police and is an effective way of keeping up to date with issues affecting the local area.”
