ROSSENDALE residents are being asked to air their views about crime and policing in the borough.

Senior police officers and local community beat managers have arranged a series of meetings at venues throughout the area.

They are inviting members of the public to come along and discuss any issues of concern they have and ask any questions about local policing and crime.

The first meeting takes place tonight at Alder Grange High School, in Rawtenstall.

Next Monday there will be one held at Bacup Leisure Centre, and the final meeting is on Monday, October 20 at Whitworth Civic Hall. All the meetings start at 7pm.
