Questions on this topic, can be submitted in advance via a Facebook comment or private message, or via email to getinvolved@westmercia.pnn.police.uk. Questions are also invited via a comment during the livestream.

The meeting will be streamed live on the @WestMerciaPCC Twitter page, from 6pm on Monday 10th December.

Commissioner John Campion said “The public’s police service is funded with tax payer’s money so its imperative communities have a say in how this money is spent. This event allows the public to be involved in the most open and transparent way and ensures they can have a voice at the highest level, helping to shape priorities for the budget moving forward.”
