West Mercia Police today announced its plans for the future of the force and gave details of the changes it is making in order to improve the policing service it provides at the same time as saving money. The force has undertaken an extensive review of the way in which it operates and can now reveal a new internal structure that will ensure it can continue serving, protecting and making the difference in communities in Herefordshire, Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and Worcestershire during the challenging budgetary times that lie ahead.
Come & join us next Saturday between 9.30 & 11.30.
It's the same day as the Newent Onion Fayre. Why not pop into the market first, pick up your local produce, fortify yourself with a cup of tea or coffee & piece of cake, then see what Newent has to offer!
Dash.com is reporting on the birth of a new political party in Herefordshire: It's Our County.
The party has been created from the campaign group 'It's Our City' and other local groups.
According to its website: "It's Our County has been formed out of local frustration at the state of local politics. Local people feel disconnected, unrepresented and powerless to protect what makes Herefordshire special. Despite numerous and expensive "consultations" they feel they have no real say in how their money is spent."
