NAG Gallops into Town - Thurs 18 Feb

Chesham area Neighbourhood Action Groups (NAG) is holding its first meeting in the Town Hall, Chesham on Thursday 18 February at 7.30pm. (The date was changed from Monday 1 February 2010 due to the Post Office meeting). If you are interested just pop along or telephone the chair, Alison Pirouet on 01494 778985. Neighbourhood Action Groups (NAGs) are a key part of Neighbourhood Policing in Thames Valley. A NAG is a multi-agency, problem-solving group comprising relevant partner agencies, key stakeholders as well as members of the community. NAGs focus their work on the main priorities that are identified after consultation with the local community. Members, who are all volunteers, are responsible for achieving certain tasks on behalf of their neighbourhood. To get involved call 0845 8 505 505 which is the Thames Valley Police non-emergency number and ask to speak to a representative from your local Neighbourhood Policing team. Or you can enquire about joining by visiting your local police station. NAGs attract a broad and diverse membership with a variety of skills and experience such as local authority/district council representatives, youth services, housing managers, environmental officers, head teachers, licensees, neighbourhood watch coordinators and police officers. Administrative, practical and communication skills are all highly valued. Under-represented groups, such as young people and people who are disabled, are encouraged to join.
