Residents set their Slough priorities
Residents of two neighbourhoods in Slough set their policing priorities for the coming year at recent open forums.
A public meeting to launch neighbourhood policing in Central Slough was held at the Express by Holiday Inn in Mill Street, Slough, on Thursday 20 March.
As a result of this meeting, previous street meetings and other forms of public consultation across Central Slough, the following three priorities have been identified: anti-social behaviour and drug use in identified locations; a more visible police presence across the neighbourhood; speeding and inconsiderate parking at identified locations.
A separate public meeting to launch neighbourhood policing in Langley St Marys was held at the church hall in St Marys Road, Langley, on Thursday 27 March.
Residents identified the coming year’s priorities for Langley St Marys as: anti-social behaviour, parking and a more visible police presence across the neighbourhood.

“I would like to thank everyone who attended the meetings for their contribution, and also the two venues for their support. We have been given a clear indication of what residents expect from the police and our partners, and we will be working together to address the issues raised.”
