The Prime Minister sees Neighbourhood Policing in Action

25 February 2008. Every household in England and Wales will be given access to a mobile phone number to call new neighbourhood police teams, Gordon Brown announced today. Each home will also get an email address for the officer responsible for their street and neighbourhood police chiefs will have to hold regular public meetings under the plans, to be rolled out by April. The £325 million-a-year scheme, one of the UK's biggest shifts from centralised policing, has been drawn up by the Prime Minister and Home Secretary Jacqui Smith. Under the system, trialled in Lambeth, South London, each council ward will have its own neighbourhood policing team, made up of police and community support officers.
