Thanks to everyone who came to a packed Walworth Town Hall last night for the first meeting of the Southwark Policing Oversight Board to be held in public.
The theme of the night was engagement and included a presentation from local police discussing what they’re doing - and what they can do better - to support residents.
The board also heard from local groups who engage with both the police and our communities on a range of issues that affect trust and confidence: the Youth Independent Advisory Group, the local Safer Neighbourhood Board and the Independent Advisory Group.
The Policing Oversight Board will be producing recommendations based on what was discussed, which we will share as soon as they’re ready.
