Getting people the right support at the right time can make all the difference when they are experiencing a mental health crisis. 

Recently, a person contacted police while contemplating suicide. Officers worked quickly with healthcare partners to locate them, ensure their immediate safety and help them engage with support. 🤝 

While officers remained with the individual, further contact was made with the ambulance service, and once the Mental Health Recovery Vehicle arrived, care was transferred to specialist mental health professionals who were able to provide the most appropriate support for their needs. 🚑 

This is an example of Right Care, Right Person in action, with police, ambulance and mental health services working together to ensure people in crisis receive support from the professionals best placed to help. 💬

𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮 𝘃𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗺 𝗼𝗳 𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶-𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗼𝘂𝗿? 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲. 📣

Residents and businesses are being invited to steer the conversation at a new meeting examining the action being taken to address anti-social behaviour and reduce fear.  

Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts will be using her next Public Assurance Meeting (PAM) to explore how Derbyshire Police and partners are tackling Anti-social Behaviour (ASB) and keeping communities safe, ensuring local residents concerns remain at the heart of the discussion. 

As part of her mission to strengthen the public’s voice in policing and ensure victims remain front and centre of her work, the PCC is once again inviting residents and businesses to put forward questions based on their own experiences and the impact ASB has had on their mental and physical wellbeing in advance of the discussions.  

ASB remains a top concern of residents and businesses across Derbyshire and features as one of six key priorities in the PCC’s Police and Crime Plan, shaped by the people who live and work in Derbyshire.  

ASB is any behaviour that causes harassment, alarm, distress, nuisance or annoyance and can fit into one of three categories: personal, environmental or nuisance. 

In her most recent Listening To You consultation, just under half (47%) of respondents said they were worried about being a victim of ASB, mirroring last year’s results at 45%. Both are lower than the previous two years (55%, 56%). 

The PCC has been clear from the outset that ASB must be addressed in partnership with agencies coordinating action to support victims, deliver robust enforcement and prevent future activity by diverting potential perpetrators at the earliest opportunity.
