Narberth residents were introduced to their new neighbourhood policing officer at the recent Police and Communities Together (PACT) meeting.

PC Alison Foley (pictured) has joined the team after working for a number of years in Pembrokeshire's Crime Management Unit.

She said: "I'm looking forward to getting out and about within the communities of Narberth section, showing a police presence and providing a service to the public about the things that matter to them."

At the meeting, residents were updated about action taken to target anti-social behaviour in Kilgetty.

The neighbourhood policing teams and local officers had increased patrols, particularly on a weekend in the area.

Repeat victims of anti-social behaviour had been visited by the team and reassured of actions that were taking place.

The issue had also been brought to the attention of the anti-social behaviour committee and the team has launched a joint initiative with housing, the anti-social behaviour reduction officer and the housing association officer to target the parents and children of the area who appear to be the cause of unacceptable behaviour.

The neighbourhood policing team were also working together with other agencies in a bid to get better facilities for young people in the area.

The residents agreed this should remain a priority for the coming month.

The meeting also asked for parking to be targeted outside Narberth School in Jesse Road, where vehicles were causing obstructions and damage to the grass verge, along with raising awareness about seatbelts and child seats.

The next Narberth PACT takes place on March 2 at 7 pm at the Bloomfield Community Centre, Narberth.
