On the Beat…in South Tyneside Recently the Police and Crime Commissioner spent time in South Tyneside with Area Commander Darren Adams and Inspector Shane Jenness to hear more about neighbourhood policing across the area. Over the last year there has been a 27% reduction in youth-related anti-social behaviour across South Tyneside, and the Commissioner was glad to learn about the ongoing work alongside partners to keep driving ASB down. Patrols took them to South Shields, covering South Shields Metro Station, King Street, Ocean Road, South Marine Park, the fairground and back up to Market Place and covered: • Speaking with women from Chilln N Spilln, a local women’s mental health group.• The importance of Ocean Road Community Centre’s refurb and giving young people a place to hang out.• The results of a restorative justice program In South Marine Park helping reduce ASB and encourage a sense of pride by working to improve the parks.• Ongoing improvements around the Fun Fair and amusements next to Sandhaven Beach The Commissioner will return during the peak summer period to see how police and partner work is continuing to improve the area.Northumbria Police
