Welcome to the Ipswich North East Safer Neighbourhood Team website.

In Suffolk, Safer Neighbourhood Teams are made up of Police Officers, Police Community Support Officers, Specials and Police Support Volunteers.

We work alongside staff from other organisations, including district and borough councils to provide an even better service to local people across the county.

Our team has a remit to solve problems identified by local people from your area - which could range from crime and anti - social behaviour to noise and litter.

Remember, we are here to help you, so please get in touch with us if you need our assistance.  Ipswich North East team covers the Bixley, Rushmere and St Johns Wards within Ipswich.

The next Community Priority Setting Meeting

We hold regular area forums and police priority setting meetings which are attended by the police, county, district and parish councillors, as well as many of our partners. These are open to the public to attend and raise any issues they may have about the area to the relevant agency.

The aim is to:

• Discuss issues put forward by local community.
• Discuss the top three priorities chosen by members of the public and decide how these should be addressed and how we are going to tackle them .
• Arrange feedback to local people about progress.

The date for the next North East Area Forum is - Thursday 15th July 2010 - 7 pm to 8 pm at the Sixth Form Centre of Copleston High School, Foxhall Road, Ipswich.

The date for the next North East Police Priority Setting Meeting is - Wednesday 4th August 2010 - 7pm to 8pm at St Johns United Reformed Church, Cowper Street, Ipswich.
