My name is Ch. Supt Waheed Khan, and I am writing to you as the Head of the Local Policing Support Unit which includes responsibility for the Essex Watch Liaison Officers team.

I am currently reviewing how we work in order to make the most of the resources we have. As you may have heard, we are investing more in our Neighbourhood Policing Teams which include police officers and also PCSOs, but to enable this I am considering how we can maintain contact with all our dedicated Watch teams, including you.

I would be grateful for your views on how we can best continue serving our communities and working with you – in particular:

  • What information do you currently find of interest and use, from us?
  • Are the incident reports which we send to you helpful?
  • How you would like to be contacted by us?
  • How often you would like to be contacted by us?

Please do not hesitate to contact Lindsey.Farthing@essex.police.uk with your views. Crime is down by over 10,000 offences in the last year across Essex and you’re helping us make the county an even safer place to live and work.

I look forward to hearing your views and suggestions soon. In the meantime, if you haven’t done so already, please do sign up to either the county-wide or district-level Dispatch newsletter which provides information on what your officers and PCSOs are doing in your area as well as crime prevention advice.

Yours sincerely and thank you for helping to keep Essex safe,
