💜 Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts has welcomed the Governments decision to roll out specialist rape courts across England and Wales. 

Designed to improve the experience of victims and help cases progress more effectively through the criminal justice system, the new courts are intended to provide greater focus on some of the most serious and complex cases. 

⚖️ The PCC has consistently advocated for a criminal justice system that puts victims first, ensuring those affected by rape and serious sexual offences are treated with dignity, compassion and respect at every stage of the process. 

This development strongly supports the priorities set out in the Police and Crime Plan, particularly the commitment to tackling Serious Violence, including Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG), and Bringing Offenders to Justice by improving victims experiences and supporting the effective progression of cases through the courts. 

While there is still much work to do, this development represents an important step towards improving victims experiences and strengthening confidence in the justice system. 

🤝 Supporting victims, reducing delays and ensuring access to specialist support remain key priorities in Derbyshire.

🎓 A busy few days for the OPCC Engagement Team at Freshers' Fairs in Chesterfield and Buxton.

Our team enjoyed meeting students and speaking about the work of the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner, as well as hearing directly about the issues that matter most to young people across Derbyshire.

🗣️ Students were encouraged to take part in our Listening to You Survey, helping us better understand local concerns and ensure their voices help shape policing and community safety priorities.

We also raised awareness of Derbyshire Victim Services, highlighting the free and confidential support available to anyone affected by crime.

Alongside this, the team shared important safety messages on:

🚗 Don't Risk the Drive
📱 Silent 999 Calls
🛴 The risks and legal implications of illegal e-scooter use

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to chat, ask questions and share their views. It's vital that young people have a voice in shaping safer communities.
