POLICE have offered their services to give crime prevention advice or answer questions at virtual community meetings.
Dom Smith, Neighbourhood Engagement Officer for Bournemouth and Christchurch, said: "We would normally be attending coffee mornings, completing school talks and other events throughout the county.
"With the current pandemic a lot of this has moved online. With that in mind we want to know what community groups are now meeting online using platforms like Teams or Zoom.
"If you are part of a local community group, home watch or youth group and want us, your local neighbourhood policing team, to dial in, answer any questions or give some crime prevention advice then please give us an email with details of who your group are, when they’re meeting and we will try our best to get involved."
Anyone interested should email NEO@dorset.pnn.police.uk
