Thames Valley's Police & Crime Plan

Over £350,000 funding to reduce reoffending and protect young people from gangs

This week I have announced over £350,000 funding for seven organisations delivering projects to support key strategic aims within the Police and Crime Plan.

The Police and Crime Commissioner for the Thames Valley has awarded over £300,000 funding to seven organisations delivering projects to support key strategic aims within his Police and Crime Plan.

Following the publication of the National Audit Office (NAO) report on the financial stability of police forces, I spoke to BBC Radio Berkshire about how the funding formula should be improved to benefit Thames Valley.

Statement from the Thames Valley PCC:

We are looking for volunteers to assist in running Cadet weekly sessions and supporting Cadets at events and community activities across the Thames Valley.

Force Open Day THIS SATURDAY!

Every summer, Thames Valley Police opens its doors to the public for its force Open Day.

Our force Open Day helps to promote greater understanding of the work of our various departments and specialist teams here at Thames Valley Police.

Victims and witnesses of hate crime who are not comfortable talking to the police now have a place to go to report incidents in South Oxfordshire and the Vale of White Horse.

The Vale of White Horse District Council is exploring whether to take over on-street parking enforcement in the district.

Yesterday the new Home Secretary, Sajid Javid, published CONTEST - the UK's strategy for countering terrorism. The last strategy was published in 2011 and this review is much welcomed in the wake of several attack's last year and in response to the continually changing threat.

The bids are now in for the fund launched by the Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) for Thames Valley, Anthony Stansfeld, aimed at organisations who can assist him in achieving key aims in his Police and Crime Plan.
