My plan to cut crime
Over the past 8 years I have overseen total recorded crime fall in West Mercia; most recent published figures show it has fallen 7% on the previous year.
I have overseen the recruitment of over 500 additional officers to West Mercia Police, taking the force to record numbers of police officers.
I am determined that the communities of West Mercia must feel the full benefit of that investment – where crime falls further, victims are better supported and communities feel safer.
