Safer Neighbourhood Policing Online Success Safer Neighbourhood Teams are now an established feature of policing in England and Wales. But how to co-ordinate the activity and link up users, when there are multi-agencies and involves people outside the police force. Suffolk police have successfully piloted funding project, as an online Problem Solving service for Neighbourhood Policing, and shown that the system can be used seamlessly across CDRP and Safer Neighbourhood Teams. All members of all teams get online visibility of what everyone else is doing – in their team, other teams in their area, and from other areas.

Solution Of the Month - "Honnington Team Day" Partnership: Western Suffolk CDRP Problem: Over recent months Haverhill has seen an increase in violence involving young people and "Gang Culture" is becoming more prevalent both in the town centre and the two main estates, Chalkstone and Clements Response: Following on from the success of a similar day last year organised by Youth Offending Service targeting eight to thirteen year olds, we intend to target the older group, fourteen to seventeen, who are involved/affected by events in the town. We are looking at taking a group of about thirty young people from as many different areas and groups to Honnington RAF base. We would get them involved in "Team Building" exercises on the day run by the base Physical Training Instructors culminating in "Assault Course Challenge".The staff would talk about lifestyle and how "Team Work" is an integral part of modern life not just the forces. They would also look at physical fitness. For more details, run an online keyword search for "Honnington", or contact: kate.pymont@suffolk.pnn.police.uk.
