This group met today and discussed various issues around crime and safety in the City Centre area. It consists of lots of Thames Valley Police staff right from Inspector to Police Community Support Officers. Community safety officers and estate managers are present as well as resident, park rangers, the City Centre Manager and Nightsafe.
The agenda included discussions about drug dealing & misuse, alcohol-related antisocial behaviour and litter issues.
The NAGs are actually very useful in terms of keeping all the relevant authorities, including the Police, in touch with each other and enable a much more holistic approach to general community safety and well-being than would otherwise be possible.
