Police and Communities Together meetings

Do you want to discuss crime and anti-social behaviour with agencies in your area? This page gives information on Police and Communities Together (PACT) meetings, which are held every month.

All members of the community are welcome to attend a PACT meeting. The meetings are also attended by Safe Durham Partnership representatives such as Durham Constabulary, Durham and Darlington Fire and Rescue Service and us.

PACT meetings will identify and discuss your local problems, agree local action to tackle these problems and individual neighbourhood priorities will be agreed.

PACT meetings are held at local venues at convenient times - usually early evening - and last no longer than an hour.

To find the date and time of your next local PACT meeting visit the Durham Constabulary website and search in the neighbourhood section for your local area.
