Welcome to my latest newsletter for residents of Cheshire.  As we come towards the end of 2023 the work to make Cheshire even safer is delivering real results. Drug gangs are being taken off our streets, new road safety initiatives are in place, and plans for new police stations are under way.­ THINK Bike In 2021, 19 year old Harry Abbey was tragically killed in a collision with a combine harvester while riding his motorbike. His mum, Bev, has bravely shared her family’s story and is working with Cheshire Police to educate young people about road safety. I’m proud to have supported this project with some funding, so that the roads education team can visit schools and colleges across Cheshire with Harry’s bike to promote this message. Taking down gangs One year ago, Cheshire Police launched an operation to target County Lines drug gangs and get drugs and weapons off our streets. Since then, 70 County Lines gangs have been taken down, over £70,000 worth of drugs have been seized, and sentences totalling more than 100 years of jail time have been handed down to the criminals responsible. New station in Crewe I was delighted to sign the contract to purchase land for a new police station to serve Crewe, Nantwich and the surrounding villages. This is in addition to keeping a police hub in Crewe town centre. Modernising the police service is part of my Police and Crime Plan and it’s vital to ensure that the buildings used by officers and staff to serve you are fit for purpose. Youth Commission Ensuring that young people’s voices are heard in policing is really important, so I was pleased to welcome the Cheshire Youth Commission to Police HQ for their annual conference. They shared key issues that their peers care most about and what young people are looking for when engaging with me and the police. The Youth Commission is recruiting for next year, so please do consider applying or ask someone who you may know. New Cameras I have been working with Cheshire’s Local Authorities on speed camera projects to make our roads even safer. I’m pleased to report that the first two schemes are now in place: Average speed cameras along the A41 outside Chester, and a camera to deter people from speeding through red lights in Widnes. Retail Crime Retail workers are at a greater risk of encountering crime – But nobody should face threats, abuse and violence at work. I visited Kingsway South’s Co-op in Warrington to show my support during Respect for Shopworkers week and I am committed to working with businesses to tackle retail crime.­ Thank you for reading this latest update. For more news and information don’t forget to visit my website, and if there is anything I can do to help then please don’t hesitate to contact me via the details below. Best Wishes, John DwyerPolice and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire Keep In Touch pcc@cheshire.police.uk | 01606 364000 | linktr.ee/CheshirePCC­­­­­
