Rural Crime Forum MONDAY 23 JULY 2018 | 11:00 - 12:30 FUW Building | Royal Welsh Showground Panel Members Are we doing enough to tackle rural crime? Dyfed-Powys is the largest police force area in both England and Wales, with much of its territory falling within rural inland areas and coastal countryside. Crime that occurs within these areas, and indeed across much of Wales’ landmass, can be classified as rural crime. Rural crime is often complex, multi-faceted and difficult to monitor and investigate. ‘Are we doing enough?’ welcomes colleagues from partner agencies across Wales to sit alongside me on a panel to discuss and consult with partners, stakeholders and members of rural communities on matters of wildlife crime and rural affairs in Wales. As elected officials and senior representatives of our respective organisations, we have a responsibility to listen to, and address concerns over community safety, crime and justice. Together, we can work together to deliver better services to where it matters most - our communities. A native of Ceredigion, Dafydd Llywelyn has been the Police and Crime Dyfed-Powys Police and Crime Commissioner since Commissioner for May 2016.
