Message from Chief Constable Mark Hobrough
As chief constable, it is my privilege to present the Chief Constable’s Delivery Plan for 2025-2029. This plan reflects our commitment to the communities we serve and our dedication to delivering a safer, more inclusive, and just society for all.
The Police and Crime Commissioner’s Police, Crime and Justice Plan for 2025-2029 has been developed through extensive public engagement, capturing the diverse voices and concerns of the people of Gwent. Our delivery plan aligns with the Police and Crime Commissioner’s (PCC) plan and the broader challenges facing policing today.
Our mission is to improve trust and confidence in policing by working as one cohesive team that places the community at the heart of everything we do. To achieve this, we have undertaken a comprehensive review of our operational model, moving to a functional model of policing that builds upon our strong neighbourhood approach. This new model, supported by the government’s Neighbourhood Policing Pledge, will see significant investment in neighbourhood policing, ensuring that our officers are more visible and accessible to the public.
We are committed to fostering a talented, resilient workforce that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve. Our Strategic Equality Plan will guide our efforts to promote equality and diversity in all our initiatives, ensuring that our workforce is inclusive and representative.
Protecting the most vulnerable members of our community remains a top priority. We will continue to work with partners to provide timely and effective support to victims, particularly those at risk.
Putting victims first is at the core of our policing strategy. We will ensure that the experiences and needs of victims are central to our approach, providing continuous support and engaging with survivors to shape our services. By prioritising the needs and voices of victims, we aim to build trust and confidence in our policing services.
Reducing reoffending is essential for creating safer communities. Our Integrated Offender Management scheme and Youth Offending Teams will continue to play a vital role in managing offenders and preventing children from entering the criminal justice system. Through targeted interventions and collaborative efforts, we will break the cycle of reoffending and improve the quality of life for all residents.
Public confidence in policing is a cornerstone of effective law enforcement. We are dedicated to building trust through ethical leadership, community engagement, and transparency.
In conclusion, the Chief Constable’s Delivery Plan for 2025-2029 is a roadmap for delivering on our commitments to the people of Gwent. By working together with our partners and the community, we will create a safer, more inclusive, and just society for all.
