Flintshire residents urged to book place at PCC and NWP public surgery

North Wales Police and Crime Commissioner Andy Dunbobbin and North Wales Police are holding an advice surgery.

It will take place at Flint’s River Dee Centre on Castle Street for residents of the town and surrounding areas from 18.30-20.30 on 12th May.

This event is an important part of the PCC’s mission to bring policing closer to the people of the region. The surgery will enable local people to discuss policing in their communities and to raise any concerns or comments they might have with the Commissioner and representatives from North Wales Police.  

Attendees will have 20 minutes to speak personally with the Commissioner, who will be accompanied by representatives from his office and North Wales Police, to provide the maximum possible assistance to the public. The Commissioner, officers and staff will be able to provide further signposting if an issue can be more appropriately dealt with by other agencies and organisations. To ensure privacy, no other members of the public will be present during the meeting.

How it works

The PCC will be accompanied in Flint by staff from his team and North Wales Police who will help to facilitate the meetings and take notes if needed. Surgeries are by appointment only to ensure that the issues being raised relate to policing, crime or community safety, and to ensure the PCC is fully briefed on the issue prior to the meeting.

While the Commissioner is unable to intervene directly in operational matters, he welcomes residents’ feedback on how North Wales is policed. The PCC will not be able to consider complaints about police officers, members of police staff, police community support officers or special constables as this has to go through the existing and established channels. Further advice on the complaints system is on the OPCC website here.
