PCC Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts and Deputy PCC Dr Fatima Eltinay visited Tideswell, Buxton alongside the Derbyshire Rural Crime Team to hear directly from a local farmer about how they have worked with our Rural Crime Team, alongside the measures they have put in place to keep their farm and family safe.
Rural crime continues to have a serious impact on farming communities, with issues such as equipment theft, livestock worrying and damage to property placing financial and emotional strain on farmers. Nicolle and Fatima saw first‑hand how these crimes disrupt daily operations and threaten livelihoods.
The Rural Crime Team outlined the proactive work they are doing to tackle these issues – from targeted patrols and intelligence‑led operations to working closely with farmers to improve security and strengthen reporting pathways.
The PCC helped mark some machinery using Datatag, a forensic security marking system, which makes it harder for criminals to steal equipment and machinery.
Nicolle and Fatima will continue supporting efforts to reduce rural crime and ensure farmers feel protected, listened to and confident that action is being taken to safeguard their communities.

PCC Nicolle Ndiweni‑Roberts and Deputy PCC Dr Fatima Eltinay met with members of The Slow Girls Walking Club in the High Peak to celebrate their one‑year anniversary and hear how the group is helping women feel safer and more connected in their community.
The club now brings together local women for short, friendly walks throughout the year on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Friday mornings.
What began as a simple idea for companionship, support and safety has grown into a supportive space where women can walk, talk and build confidence together.
Over the past 52 weeks, the group has achieved an incredible amount:
▪️ 120+ walks held
▪️ 140+ hours of fresh air and conversation
▪️ 250+ miles walked
▪️ 300+ hours of training delivered
Nicolle and Fatima heard how important these walks have become for wellbeing, social connection and personal safety, especially for women who may otherwise feel isolated or hesitant to walk alone.
Community‑led initiatives like this play a vital role in creating safer, stronger neighbourhoods, and both Nicolle and Fatima will continue supporting groups who empower residents and help make Derbyshire a place where everyone feels confident and safe.
