Neighbourhood Action Group meeting

Take your chance and say what issues directly affect you.
Your Neighbourhood Action Group will ensure that they are tackled at
their root cause and provide long term solutions.

Neighbourhood policing is about communities managing their neighbourhood by working
together and in partnership with all local agencies.

Your Neighbourhood Action Group (NAG) is key to the success of neighbourhood policing.
It is this group who plan on behalf of the community and organise for tasks to be completed.

Your NAG is a volunteer working group made up of representatives from the
community. It includes residents, the police, local authority and other organisations,
such as local businesses and schools.

If you cannot attend the meeting but want to contribute,
you can email your concerns to JAW@thamesvalley.pnn.police.uk

Your neighbourhod team can also be contacted via the non-emergency Police number : 0845 8 505 505
