Get involved

The Partner & Community together (PACT) process is working well in Moyle. This is where Police and other agencies work along with the community to identify priorities, explore solutions and take action.

How is this done in Moyle? We have not set up any new meetings; we do not ask anything than you are already doing. We do the work, we attend all meetings that we can in your area, we talk to local representatives, and we use the DPP to speak to groups that don’t normally contact police. During consultations we take note of all concerns and the beginning of each month, the priorities are chosen from your concerns.

However we need your input and we would ask that this is done by whatever means you can, attend meetings, contact local NPT officers, E mail, or the next month or so, you can contact us on Facebook and twitter.

You can get involved with helping us to make your neighbourhood safer by telling us the issues that you think need to be addressed by attending one of your local partnership meetings.

We Did

Set up a Neighbourhood Watch area in Cushendall

There is currently no Neighbourhood Watch area in Cushendall, an anti-social problem and fear of reporting has shown the benefit of such a scheme.  This partnership between local Councillors, DPP and local residents is being organised and hopefully will go live in the near future.

  
Speeding on the coast Road                            We have asked Roads Policing to assist in speed operations and will work with Department of Vehicle and Transport Agency to take illegal cars of the road. We will also use the Anti-Social Behaviour Order legislation were appropriate.

  
Anti-Social motoring in Cushendall, especially in High StreetWe have revised our patrol patterns to mean we are spending more time in this area, we have stopped vehicles and given advice where appropriate and prosecution at other times.   We are also working closely with our local Roads Policing Unit and Department of Vehicle and Transport Agency to remove some of these vehicles from the roads.


Theft in the rural area

We have increased our patrols, using assistance from crime teams, TSG’s and Road Policing units where possible. We are maximising our Scene examination to gain all evidence to catch the offenders. These actions have decreased the thefts and hopefully will continue to do so. We have also set up a rural text system and mark farm trailers.
