PCC Nicolle Ndiweni‑Roberts and Deputy PCC Dr Fatima Eltinay visited Gamesley to see first‑hand the work being done to support young people and reduce anti‑social behaviour (ASB) across the area.

As part of her commitment to delivering the Police and Crime Plan, Nicolle has awarded £5,000 to the Gamesley Community Group through her Safer and Stronger Communities Fund. This funding will help tackle rising ASB levels and provide a safe, positive space for young people to socialise.

A local resident runs popular boxing sessions, giving young people a constructive outlet and encouraging them to channel their energy into fitness and discipline.

Tackling ASB requires long‑term partnership working, so it was encouraging to hear how Glossop Police SNT are engaging with young people across the area to build trust, strengthen relationships, and work with the Community Group to deliver sessions on life skills and sports.

This funding is already making a real difference and is helping steer young people away from negative influences, giving them opportunities, support and a safer environment to thrive.

Deputy PCC Dr Fatima Eltinay brought organisations together in Derby for the first in a series of community listening events focused on tackling hate crime across Derbyshire.

The event was delivered in partnership with Muslim Women's Network UK and Muslim Safety Net, bringing together trusted community organisations and professionals to hear directly from women affected by hate crime and discrimination.

Representatives from women’s and community organisations, including Al Hurraya, Derby Women's Centre, the Multi-Faith Centre, Spark and Spectrum CIC, and An Nisa CIC, shared the experiences of the women they support.

Discussions highlighted racism, Islamophobia, harassment, under-reporting and the barriers that can prevent women from seeking help or feeling confident that they will be heard.

The session provided an important opportunity to understand what more can be done to strengthen reporting pathways, improve access to support and build greater trust between communities, the police and partner agencies.

Officers from Normanton and Rose Hill Police SNT also attended, highlighting their work and their commitment to remaining visible, accessible and responsive to the concerns of local residents.

This is only the beginning. Future sessions will seek to hear from other groups of women and communities who feel their experiences of hate crime are unheard, overlooked or under-represented.

We are calling on community organisations, women’s groups and trusted local leaders to come forward, share the experiences of the people they support and help shape practical action to prevent hate crime and improve support for victims across Derbyshire.
