Cumbria’s Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner (Commissioner), David Allen, is hosting a surgery in Penrith to listen to residents concerns and views around Cumbria Constabulary and Cumbria Fire and Rescue Service (CFRS).

The surgery will be held at Penrith Library, St. Andrew’s Churchyard, Penrith CA11 7YA.


Speaking on the surgery, Commissioner David Allen said: “As Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner, I am the residents’ voice – your voice - within policing and fire, therefore it’s vital that I am visible and accessible to the public.

“I’d encourage anyone in Penrith or the surrounding area to come along and speak to me if they have an issue they’d like to raise. If I don’t know there is a problem, I can’t help fix it.

“If you can’t make the surgery but would still like to raise a concern, contact me at commissioner@cumbria-pcc.gov.uk or at 01768 217734 - I’m here to help so please use me as your voice to the Chief Constable and Chief Fire Officer.”
