- Listen and respond to your views on policing
On the 2nd of May, voters can head to polling stations to cast their ballot for their preferred PCC candidate.
Commenting on the election Janet said:

“As will all elections it is very important that we get out and vote.
“I would encourage everyone who can vote to get out and do so. It is so important that we participate in our elections, so let’s get out and vote tomorrow and see democracy in action.
