Your local team
I joined West Midlands Police in 2002 and have served in a number of frontline roles policing the areas of Coventry, Walsall and Birmingham. I have previously been posted within the planning team for the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games where I worked closely with partners to deliver safe and secure events at the NEC and surrounding complexes. I have spent my previous 2 years within Counter Terrorism Policing. I am delighted to have become the constituency Inspector for Solihull Rural Team which is a unique area within West Midlands Police, covering the wards of Bickenhill, the NEC, Meriden, Knowle, as well as Dorridge & Hockley Heath.
I hope my knowledge and experience will benefit this constituency and I look forward to building positive relationships with partners and residents in order to tackle issues which are important to the communities within the rural area.
