Project Stronghold, our effort to make Croft Pool a better place for its residents, has now launched.

We are working in partnership with councils, housing, fire services and ambulance services to tackle crime, antisocial behaviour, and any other issues that have been raised to us by the community.

Already, we have been out knocking doors and hosting community events to find out what is important to the people of Croft Pool so we can see where to best target our resources.

Chief Inspector Kris Shore said “It’s our commitment as your local police force to make you feel safer in your own community.

“For Project Stronghold, we want to take the people of Croft Pool on the journey with us and our partners to make where they live the best place it can be.

“Our teams have heard about some issues from residents already – we know that there’s an issue with cars left on the side of the road blocking the pavement, we know there’s an issue with overgrown hedges, we know there’s an issue with antisocial behaviour in the area.

“We appreciate all the help you’ve provided us so far, and we’d like that to continue – if something is bothering you, tell us, and we’ll make it a part of our Croft Pool action plan.”
