Crime fight on the road

Aug 17 2006 By The Journal

An anti-crime initiative is going on tour in North Northumberland in the coming months.

Berwick's Crime and Disorder Partnership meetings will be held at venues around the borough, starting at Kirknewton next Wednesday.

The group aims to tackle crime and disorder, including anti-social behaviour, drugs, domestic abuse, alcohol and persistent offenders.

Members of the public are welcome to attend in a bid to raise issues with the team.

The meetings will take place between 3pm and 5pm on August 23 at Kirknewton Village Hall, October 25 at Beadnell WI Hall starting at 1.30pm, and December 6 at Committee Room 1, Council Offices, Berwick.
