Meet Your Magistrates






Lancashire Magistrates' are stepping up their efforts to get closer to their local communities, giving the public the opportunity to have
more of a say in the local delivery of justice in Lancashire.
This new Community Engagement Initative is a two-way discussion.
Local Magistrates find out what the local community’s priorities and concerns are and the local community find out about what is being done to tackle crime and anti-social behaviour in their local area.
By better involving local communities, this initiative will help to :
- Reduce crime
- Reduce the fear of crime
- Increase confidence that crime is being dealt with effectively
- Ensure the public can have more of an impact on reducing local crime, making life safer and better for everyone.
Lancashire Magistrates' will attend already established community meetings (PACT - Police & Community Together, MAPS - Multi Agency Problem Solving) and will also hold a number of dedicated local events themselves.
Did you know .... You can get in touch to request a meeting!
To request the attendance of a local Magistrate at one of your community events contact Susan Horsley at susan.horsley2@hmcourts-service.gsi.gov.uk or call 01772 272852
