The plans for fighting crime in Wednesfield North and across Wolverhampton have recently been released. Over the next week I will be publishing extracts of the Safer Wolverhampton Policing Plan here on my web page. The first change to be noticed is that there is to be a name change
Wolverhampton Neighbourhood Policing Unit
Across the West Midlands, all Local Policing Units
will be renamed as “Neighbourhood Policing Units”
(NPUs) and will be responsible for preventing harm
through early intervention and problem solving.
Local commanders will be responsible for local
deployment and prioritisation decisions linked to a
clear local plan focused on preventing harm, overall
performance on their area and closer partnership
working.
With this in mind, the Wolverhampton Local Police
and Crime Plan 2016-2017 continues to simplify our
approach and brings all of the elements outlined in
this document together into the following three key
objectives:
- Prevent and Reduce Crime
- Prevent and Reduce Harm and Vulnerability.
- Understanding and responding to Community Concerns
