Sarah Taylor

The Police and Crime Commissioner is the elected voice of local people and so should prioritise our needs and concerns. Talking with residents and businesses across Norfolk, people clearly want to feel trust and confidence in our police again.

As a child of an Armed Forces family, I have a natural respect for the police. It really concerns me that trust has been eroded and I urgently want to change this, not only for residents, but also for people serving in the police.

I work in road safety at a national level, scrutinising government decisions, and bringing together organisations to make sure that priorities are informed by evidence and that they respond to local needs.

If elected I will take the same approach. I will prioritise:

·       Prevention, making us safer across the county, and reducing the numbers of young people drawn into crime.

·       Making our roads safer by using the “Vision Zero” approach to reduce the numbers of people killed or sustaining life-changing injuries on our roads.

·       Tackling violence against women and girls which accounts for some of the highest crime rates reported. High-profile scandals have drastically undermined many women’s confidence in reporting crimes, leaving us feeling less safe. Confidence must be restored, and perpetrators brought to justice.

·       Faster response times to crimes and improved support for victims, to improve the experience of residents and businesses in our rural areas.

·       Addressing organized crime, whether it is County Lines, scams or shoplifting to order, and helping victims with what can be devastating effects.

I will listen to you. I will make sure that your priorities are the police’s priorities, and I will work with communities across Norfolk to restore trust and confidence.
