Police and crime commissioners

Police and crime commissioners are elected by the public to ensure the policing needs of communities are met as effectively as possible and to oversee how crime is tackled in your police force area.

Anna Smith

A Fresh Start for Policing in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough

I bring a lifetime of public service leadership. I’ve been a school leader, council leader, Deputy Mayor and Acting Mayor. I know and love our region. I know how to lead it.

I am driven by a desire to serve and improve lives, to make everyone safer and more secure. I have the right experience, energy and vision.

I will deliver a fresh start for policing across Peterborough and Cambridgeshire.

·       A responsive police service, there when you need it.

Everyone should feel safe at home, at work, and in daily life. I’ll champion neighbourhood policing. 

Our police are under-funded. I’ll fight for a fair deal, and for our share of the 13,000 extra neighbourhood police and PCSOs promised by Labour.

·       Prevent Crime

We must promote safer streets, businesses and homes. And as a former teacher, I know we must stop young people being drawn into crime.

·       Break the cycle of crime by joining up services

I’ll work with agencies, businesses and voluntary groups to get results for residents. I did this during lockdown, I did this addressing domestic abuse. I will do it as PCC.

·       Zero-tolerance for violence

I’ll tackle attitudes that lead to gang violence, knife crime and the abuse of women. I have practical experience in youth work, safeguarding and working with the police. 

·       Making your voice heard

I’ll help our hard-working police deliver your priorities, and improve standards. I will hold the police to account. We all deserve the best.

Polls predict Labour will win, but it’s close. Vote for me for a fresh start for policing in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.
