The GMP Policing Strategy

• Integrated Neighbourhood Policing Teams

• Specialist Support to deal with complexity and demand

We are citizens not customers

The police are the public and the public are the police. The police take on full time duties which are incumbent on every citizen in the interests of community welfare and existence

We are citizens not customers

Almost all crime is solved by information

from the public
