Adults who face mental health challenges will be among Ceredigion and Carmarthenshire people visited by Police and Crime Commissioner Christopher Salmon on February 27.

His Your Voice day of activity in Newcastle Emlyn, Llandysul and Lampeter will also see him meet students, local councillors and other small groups.

Individuals can book private 20-minute appointments to air their thoughts, concerns and ideas about crime and policing.

Mr Salmon said: “By speaking to me, the public have a direct say in our criminal justice system.

“Local people understand local issues better than anybody and I want to know how their thoughts are evolving.”

Those due to meet Mr Salmon include members of the HUTS Workshop charity for adults with mental health challenges, Llandysul Community Council and Lampeter-based university students.

The Commissioner oversees an annual Dyfed-Powys policing fund of around £96m. As the elected voice of the public, he makes the police answerable to the communities they serve.

He works in partnership across a range of agencies to ensure a unified approach to preventing and reducing crime.

In his first two years in office, his key achievements have included more police officers, improved access to the police, reduced policing costs and the distribution of around £160,000 in community grants.

Mr Salmon has arranged 12 Your Voice days through 2015 – three in each Dyfed-Powys county of Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion, Pembrokeshire and Powys.

The schedule includes: Presteigne and Knighton, Llanelli and Burry Port, St Davids, Aberystwyth, Carmarthen and St Clears, Builth Wells and Brecon, New Quay and Aberaeron.
