Northamptonshire Police Innovative Examples of Reparation in Restorative Justice Would Really Appreciate Any Innovative Examples of Reparation in Restorative Justice Northamptonshire Police Innovative examples of reparation in restorative justice Would really appreciate any innovative examples of reparation in restorative justice. We had an example where a youth had smashed the window of a charity shop. The reparation was for the youth to work in the shop, free of charge, for a number of days. Thanks - Humberside Police RE: Innovative examples of reparation in restorative justice The Cottingham local Policing Team in Humberside recently made 3 lads train and run a charity road race. They had been knocking on doors collecting for charity and keeping the money. It was well publicised and received good feedback from the public. North Yorks Police RE: Innovative examples of reparation in restorative justice Hi In North Yorkshire Police we have had some really good examples I have listed a few below but get in touch if you want more. one was where a had stolen from a newsagents obviously apologised and the item was returned it was of very low value but the parents felt could do more, so parents and agreed that should go into the newsagents every week for a month and put in half of pocket money in to a charity box in the newsagents. This was a charity close to the heart of the owner of the newsagents We had two young who went into a headmasters office and stole a , some and . low level and very little value items but they did not go to that school so technically would of been classed burglary other!! It got it downgraded and they did a litter pick around the school after a restorative meeting with the headmaster. In North Allerton one night a group of Youths caused a lot damage, graffiti, over several premises across the town centre. There was outcry in the town as it was very unsightly and across so many buildings. The local SNT found the offenders and got the offenders to clean up the mess alongside the local council who supervised with their youth workers and provided the paint and equipment. This was well publicised in the local paper and got some really good feedback from the public as the graffiti was cleaned up and before and after pictures were put in the paper. – Greater Manchester Police RE: Innovative examples of reparation in restorative justice In Wigan, we work very closely with the YOT Team and all juveniles who receive a RJ disposal are entered into a 5 hrs reparation project, which is run across the borough and has included working in shops, cleaning walls and painting community buildings. We have had some success with RJ conferences as well. The onus is on them opting out of RJ work not in and we have a good take up rate. .

  • Article the Surveillance Dimensions of the Use of Social Media by UK Police Forces
    The Surveillance Dimensions of the Use of Article Social Media by UK Police Forces Elena M. Egawhary Columbia University, USA [email protected] Abstract This paper explores the various surveillance practices involved in the use of social media for communication and investigation purposes by UK police forces. In doing so, it analyses internal policy documents and official guidance obtained through freedom of information (FOI) requests sent to 46 police forces in the United Kingdom. This analysis finds that UK police forces advise their staff to simultaneously engage in both surveillance and counter-surveillance strategies in their use of social media as a policing tool. Introduction The use of social media by UK police forces falls into two broad categories: communication (or engagement) and investigation (or operational use). UK police forces began registering corporate accounts on Twitter and Facebook for communication purposes for the first time in 2008. However, UK police forces’ use of the internet for investigative purposes dates back to April 2001 with the creation of the National Hi-Tech Crime Unit (NHTCU) to “investigate attacks on the Critical National Infrastructure; major internet based offences of paedophilia, fraud or extortion; information from seized electronic media and gather intelligence on cybercrime and cybercriminals” (Corbitt 2001: 29). Prior to 2001, most of the responsibility for using social networking sites to investigate crime fell to a small number of digital evidence recovery officers who were “swamped and learning on the job” (Thomas 2005) resulting in a reportedly “huge workload” (Goodwin 2005). This suggests that the use of social media in UK policing began in an unstructured way and “on the basis of initiatives by individual officers and subsequently with varying degrees of official support” (Crump 2011: 1).

  • Contacting Northamptonshire Police in South Northants
    CONTACTING NORTHAMPTONSHIRE POLICE IN SOUTH NORTHANTS 999 | For a crime or incident in progress, or where someone is immediately at risk of harm, you should always dial 999. You will not be criticised for a well-intentioned 999 call. Furthermore, if we think the call doesn’t warrant occupying an emergency line, we’ll ring you back on a non-emergency line as we try to keep the emergency lines clear. Your call will first be answered by the Emergency Operator who will ask you which of the emergency services you need (ie, fire, police or ambulance). When you say it is the police you want, your call will be routed to the nearest and most available police emergency line. In most cases, this will be the Northamptonshire Police control room. In some cases, where lots of 999 calls are being received at the same time, or where you live near a county border, the call can be redirected to the nearest police force which will take your details and pass to Northamptonshire immediately. When the police operator answers, you will be asked to say what the emergency is. Please be prepared to give your details and the exact location of where the police are needed. Remember that the operator may not know the location as well as you. Think about how to describe it best, giving landmarks if possible – especially for rural locations or where house numbering may not be obvious. 101 | This is the number that has been introduced nationally so that people don’t have to know the individual telephone number of each of the 40+ police forces.

  • ANPR CAMERA EXPANSION LOCATION: B663 Raunds (A45)
    Chief Superintendent Mick Stamper Head of Local Policing Force Headquarters Wootton Hall Wootton Hall Park Raunds Town Council, NORTHAMPTON The Hall NN4 OJQ Raunds WELLINGBOROUGH Email: [email protected] NN9 6LT 5 August 2020 Our Ref: R10/ANPR2020 LOCAL CONSULTATION: ANPR CAMERA EXPANSION LOCATION: B663 Raunds (A45) Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) is an important tool that enhances our ability to detect, deter, and disrupt criminality at local, regional, and national level. More information about ANPR and how this technology is used by the police can be found on the attached factsheet, and here www.npcc.police.uk/Freedomoflnformation/ANPR.aspx. In December 2019, Northamptonshire Police published a public survey regarding our use of ANPR. The responses showed broad support for police use of ANPR as a whole; more specifically that there is a clear public understanding that ANPR benefits communities by catching criminals, disrupting organised crime and keeping the roads safe. The vast majority of respondents supported an increase in the deployment of ANPR. As a result, we have decided to expand our ANPR network, and analysis has identified a number of sites across the county in which we would most benefit from being able to monitor number plate data. One of these sites is in your area, and as a local stakeholder we would welcome your views on us installing a camera here. The full details of the proposed location can be found on the attached page. Please review these and should you wish to comment please do so before 16 September 2020 by way of email to [email protected].

  • The Blackthorn 'Caspar' Project
    THE BLACKTHORN ‘CASPAR’ PROJECT CRIME AND ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR PARTNERSHIP NORTHAMPTONSHIRE POLICE, CAMPBELL SQUARE POLICE STATION, ENGLAND, 2001 SUMMARY: CASPAR (Crime and Anti-Social behaviour Partnership) was devised in response to the Northampton community safety target: "To identify and implement, in one area per year, an estate action community programme specifically aimed at reducing crime and disorder". Blackthorn is an estate of 2,200 houses, predominantly built by the local authority in the 1970's and is located on the outskirts of Northampton. Blackthorn had a burglary rate six times that of the rest of Northhampton, and high incidence of anti-social behaviour. Crime pattern and mapping analysis of both the Police and Borough Council's incident systems was carried out. Meetings were held with Community Beat Officers, Housing Officers, the Residents Association and many statutory and non-statutory agencies to identify the problems, causes and possible solutions. A community survey was carried out of all households and the local school. The survey was heavily publicised in the local media and the results were presented to residents, local politicians and other agencies at a meeting at Blackthorn Community Centre. 809 response were received. Based on this several problems were identified. They included the general appearance of the area, the physical layout of the estates, groups of young people in the area of the shops, lack of provisions for young people in the area, overall crime levels, low levels of reporting crime and information, and a general high level of cynicism about community involvement and the activities of statutory agencies For ten months a PS Mark McDonnell, worked in the local Housing Office as the Project Manager.

  • Northamptonshire Police
    We are Northamptonshire Police There are 42 other Police forces, but none has more heart. Northamptonshire Police punches above its weight, it is fast and fluid, dedicated and creative and more than anything it has stamina. It is a county force tackling metropolitan issues in an ever complex environment. The CVF and Professional Standards may be the foundation of all Policing in the UK, and they remain so for us, but we are more than that, and this is why I want to celebrate the story of how we lead here in Northamptonshire Police. To be clear when I say ‘we’ and ‘lead’, I mean everyone. If one member of our force feels that this does not apply to them, then we need to talk. We all fight crime and protect people, whether we are specialists, ‘boots on the ground’, or supporting those vital functions. So who are we? We are, each and every one of us, first and foremost principled leaders. We define confidence, humanity and humility, recognising that these things are not exclusive, rather they are co-dependent. We understand that no individual is more important than another, rather we have different responsibilities. It is recognised that the most dangerous threat to our policing mission is to put personal pride above succeeding as a team. Those who fail to embrace this will not succeed here. We use our emotional intelligence to interpret the dynamics of the people around us in order to earn their trust, engagement and forge genuine connections with them. This means that we are strong and flexible communicators who can not only command, but who inspire confidence and empower innovation.

This plan updates rather than rewrites that strategic direction. The updates reflect learnings of the first two and half years in office and provides a greater clarity of focus on certain issues. Since 2016, we have implemented some far reaching changes to how policing and our criminal justice system is delivered across Northamptonshire. Working closely with the new Chief Constable, Nick Adderley, I intend to put in place improvements to policing in our county that build on the foundations set since 2016.

  • Northamptonshire Police Become Third UK Police Force to Launch Facewatch ID
    Northamptonshire Police become third UK Police force to launch Facewatch ID The general public in Northamptonshire now have the ability to assist the police in identifying ‘people of interest’ from their smart phones using the new Facewatch ID App. The App has already shown success in London and Surrey following its launch by the Metropolitan and Surrey Police in 2012. (The Metropolitan Police have received over 180 positive IDs in just 6 months, June- Dec 2012) Facewatch is available free of charge on iPhone, Blackberry and Android smart phones through the relevant application stores and works when a user inputs their postcode into the App. The user will then see a number of CCTV images of individuals uploaded by the Northamptonshire Police CCTV team. If a member of the public is able to identify an image they then have the option to confidentially upload any information they may have. For ease of use the user is able to narrow down searches by choosing a radius around a specific postcode. The images, which are uploaded directly by officers onto the app, are ‘people of interest’ – meaning they are sought in connection with an incident or active investigation and the officers would like the public’s help in identifying who they are. This new development forms part of a wider focus by the Northamptonshire Police on ‘Justice’, where more information relating to crimes will be made available to the public. Northamptonshire Police and Crime Commissioner Adam Simmonds added, “People can view the images by simply inputting a postcode into the screen and selecting a radius of up to five miles.
