Not in My Neighbourhood Week, a national scheme which encourages people to learn more about work being done to tackle crime, will run from November 2 to 6 and is an opportunity for police and partner agencies to showcase the work they do to make communities safer and improve their quality of life.
Throughout the week officers and partner agencies across Avon and Somerset will run operations to action specific neighbourhood issues and encourage communities to engage with the police and play their part in tackling crime.
A range of initiatives will happen over the course of the week such as operations to tackle anti social behaviour, dangerous driving, drugs to more light-hearted events such as crime reduction bingo for elderly residents.
Chief Constable Colin Port, said: "Not in My Neighbourhood Week is a great opportunity to proactively work with people to find out what their main concerns are and show the general public that we are tackling the priorities they have identified.
"Anti social behaviour and crime has such a big impact on the quality of life of local residents and this is a week to showcase the ongoing work we do in partnership with local agencies to tackle these problems."
