RESIDENTS will be given an opportunity to have their questions answered by the Chief Con or Police and Crime Commissioner about gang crime, street violence, anti-social behaviour and police visibility.
The event will be the first Challenge hosted by new PCC Roger Hirst and will see him publically exercising his duty to hold the Chief Con of Essex Police to account.
The PCC and the audience will question Chief Con Stephen Kavanagh about the force’s performance as well as focusing on anti-social behaviour, local policing and the visibility of officers in the community and gang-related crime and street violence.
The event is taking place in Southend and residents from across Essex are invited to come along and make the most of the unique opportunity to put their questions to the PCC and Chief Constable.
The two-hour meeting takes place on Thursday July 7 from 7.30pm to 9.30m at the Forum in Elmer Square, Southend.
People can ask their questions on the night or submit them in advance by emailing EssexPoliceChallenge@essex.pnn.police.uk or writing to the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner at 3 Hoffmanns Way, Chelmsford, Essex, CM1 1GU.
The PCC will ensure as many questions as possible are answered at the event.
