FRANKSTON Police will host a community forum next month to discuss recent crime trends with residents.
The forum will cover topics including high risk driving, youth crime, family violence, mental health, and emergency health.
The community forum will be held at McClelland Gallery in Langwarrin at 9am on 18 August.
Superintendent Fiona Bock said that Frankston Police members are “looking forward to the opportunity to engage with our local community, offer some clarity on any topical issues, and hear more about the issues closest to their hearts.”
“We are here to keep our community safe. As well as responding to those in need, a large part of keeping crime rates low is listening to and acting on any concerns that may be bubbling away beneath the surface,” she said. “The issues raised during this forum will be recorded and assigned to local police officers, who will then be responsible for following these up and devising initiatives to address the concern and enhance community safety.”
Victoria Police recently reworked its neighbourhood policing framework.
