More police on Gedling's streets

Police Officers on a beat walk

At the 2019 General Election, the Conservative Government was elected on a promise of recruiting 20,000 new police officers nationally.

I am working with Nottinghamshire Police and Ministers to secure Gedling's fair share of these extra police officers so that our streets across Carlton, Netherfield, Burton Joyce, Gedling village, Colwick, Netherfield, Stoke Bardolph and Mapperley are safer.
