Letter from PCC Vera Baird to Constituents

2nd June 2016

Dear Resident,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank your readers for the support they gave me in the recent Police & Crime Commissioner election.

It was rewarding to see the turnout double to more than 32% and I was honoured to receive more than 180,000 votes – this result has given me an increased mandate to ensure that Northumbria Police continues to deliver the priorities that are important to you.

Over the next few months I will be out and about in local communities, ensuring that the priorities you set in the Police & Crime Plan in 2013 for Northumbria Police are relevant today – I want you to be part of it.  You can be assured that our work in tackling anti-social behaviour, ensuring victims of crime are at the heart of everything we do and remaining a leader in tackling violence against women and girls will continue.

The communities that are served by Northumbria Police are worthy of the greatest effort and I will continue to stand up for Northumbria and ensure it continues to remain one of the safest places in the country to live and work.

Best wishes

Vera

Vera Baird QC
