My Plan

My Plan to make our communities safer brings together the police, local councils, voluntary groups and individuals to form an effective and efficient team to fight crime, put criminals in prison and take action to prevent crime happening in the first place. 

  • Combat knife crime and violent crime

    A key part in My Plan to make our streets safe again is to combat knife crime and violent crime generally. Tackling these threats to our safety is a big job with many challenges, but I am determined to face up to the task. This will include: Using stop and search.

  • Improving Policing and Road Safety in Rural Areas

    When I took over as Police and Crime Commissioner, Leicestershire and Rutland was lagging behind in the attention paid to rural policing. That has all now changed. We now have: A dedicated Rural Policing Unit.

  • Supporting Crime Prevention

    When Sir Robert Peel founded the modern police force nearly two centuries ago he set out ten principles of good policing. The very first stated that the key job of the police was to "prevent crime and disorder".

  • Violence Against Women and Girls [VAWG]

    Violence against women and girls is a despicable crime that comes in many guises. As part of my campaign to make our streets safe again, I have been supporting the police and community groups who are working with victims of domestic abuse, rape and other sexual violence. Victim Support.
