By Humber Talking pod coming to Orchard Park
The Humber Talking community pod is due to be moved to Orchard Park in Hull this evening Monday 10 August, Humberside Police have announced.
The pod was previously located in Queen Victoria Square, but has now been replaced with a Safer Hull Pod.
Residents can visit the Humber Talking Pod to talk to police, the fire service and the council about any concerns or issues.
Chief Inspector Lee Edwards said:
“We’ve had the Humber Talking Pod in Hull City Centre for almost a year now and it has been really popular with residents and visitors alike.
“Having a base where we, or colleagues from partner agencies, can work from and encourage people to come and have a chat has been really beneficial and it’s a great way to help us stay connected with the local community.
“I look forward to seeing what it brings for the officers and the wider community in Orchard Park and I would encourage those that live and work in the area to really make the most of it.
“Whether you want to tell us about issues in the area, ask for safety advice or even just want to say hello we will be delighted to welcome you.”
Councillor Gary Wareing, Hull City Council Northern Area Chair, added:
“Everyone wants to feel safe and have peace of mind in the area where they live.
“Having a highly visible presence in Orchard Park shopping area, where residents can report issues of concern to police officers and council staff, will reassure residents and highlights our commitment to tackling anti-social behaviour!”
The new Safer Hull Pod in Queen Victoria Square is also available for locals seeking advice on a huge range of topics from reporting crime and antisocial behaviour to fire safety advice.
