North Norfolk deserves a Police and Crime Commissioner who understands that strong communities are the foundation of effective policing. From the coast to the market towns and villages inland, people want to feel safe, listened to and confident that their concerns matter. That is the approach I will bring as Norfolk’s first (hopefully) Green Police and Crime Commissioner.

For too long, policing has become something that happens to communities rather than with them. I want to change that by putting local people back at the heart of decision-making. Whether it’s parish councils, community groups, local businesses, farmers or young people, everyone has a role to play in making North Norfolk an even safer place to live, work and visit.
As your PCC, I would champion visible neighbourhood policing, ensuring officers spend more time in our communities, building relationships and preventing crime before it happens.
Prevention is not a soft option; it is the smartest way to reduce crime, support victims and make the best use of limited police resources. That means investing in early intervention, tackling the root causes of offending, strengthening mental health support and working with schools, councils and voluntary organisations to stop problems escalating. These principles are central to my vision for policing across Norfolk.
The Green Party believes safer communities are created through partnership, not division. I will always stand up for victims of crime, support action against anti-social behaviour, rural crime and organised criminal gangs, while ensuring policing is fair, accountable and rooted in the communities it serves. I also believe we need the confidence to have honest conversations about what works, including adopting evidence-led approaches to reducing harm and breaking the cycle of offending.
This election is about more than choosing who oversees Norfolk Constabulary. It is an opportunity to choose a different style of leadership: one that listens before it speaks, brings people together instead of driving them apart, and believes that every town and every village in North Norfolk deserves to have its voice heard.
Together, we can build a county that is not only safer, but fairer, kinder and stronger because its communities are at the heart of policing.
