NORTHERN COUNTRY WATCH WEEKLY 26th April 2012

A message from Mr H.R. Oliver-Bellasis Esq FRAgS, member of the Hampshire Constabulary's Independent Advisory Group.

Helping the Police

The Hampshire Polices rural focus is clearly working and there have been successes. However one of the farmer/ rural dwellers criticisms is that post codes do not work and police response units take too long to arrive or get lost. The mapping system employed at the Call Centre is outstanding, but it lacks your local knowledge - road names some wood names or building names.

Good News Crime Down

Crime down across North Hampshire

The number of crimes committed in the Northern Area of Hampshire has fallen while the number of those being solved has increased.

Between April 2011 and March 2012, there were a total of 35,058 offences – a drop of just under one per cent compared to the previous year.

Police have solved 32 per cent of the total number of crimes for the area, an increase from 28.8 per cent in 2010-2011.

These figures come following a year of change and re-organisation for the force as a whole and for the Northern policing Area of Hampshire Constabulary.

Chief Superintendent Mark Chatterton, area commander, said: “My officers and staff continue to work tirelessly to catch criminals and solve crime.

“We have seen improvements in the number of crimes we are solving and a reduction in the number of crimes being committed across our large patch of Hampshire.

“We continue to be victim-focused and strive to provide the best service possible to all victims of crime. Offences such as criminal damage and other anti-social crime can have a huge effect on people’s quality of life and we do not underestimate that. Every victim of every crime is important.

“We could not achieve this level of success without the commitment of our partners, which includes councils, local organisations and of course the general public. And for all the input and information all these people give, we are very grateful.

“While there is much to be proud of, we do realise there are areas we need to work on. We will continue our focus on burglary – assisted by the force-wide Operation Nemesis campaign, and also focus our efforts on addressing district-specific issues which really affect local communities.

“We will continue to work to reduce crime in all communities and ensure that North Hampshire remains a safe place to live and work.”
