How to Comment on, Complain, Compliment
or
Make Suggestions about
the Council |
|
Let us know what you think of us
We
want your
help to
make our
services better.
In
any organisation things will
go wrong, and that's the time you want
to be able to get in
touch with the Council
to sort
out any problems .
A lot of people feel embarrassed
or awkward when making a
complaint, and often
problems go
unnoticed, simply because people
don't let us
know.
Comment, Complaint or Compliment
We want
you
to let us know if you've got
a comment to make, whether it's
good or bad, on any of our
services. You can also make suggestions
about how we can improve
our services.
We
want you to
complain if you feel you've
been poorly treated by any of the
Council services. After all,
if
you don't
let us
know, how can we do
better?
We would also like you
to
tell us
when we do
something right.
If
you're
particularly pleased with any of
our services then let us know.
What you can expect from us
If
you
have indicated that you
require a
response we will acknowledge it within
3 working days, and give you a
detailed response within
15 working days.
We will
take your
comments and complaints seriously.
We will find out if our service
has failed, explain the
circumstances to you and correct
that failure, if we can. You can
involve your local Councillor at
any stage of this process.
Anything you say will be treated in confidence.
The forms can be
obtained from the Parish Council Office at the Town Hall. |

Safer Neighbourhoods
Your safer neighbourhood team is
committed to making your community a
safer and better place to live and work.
The Chapel-en-le-Frith
and Chinley Safer Neighbourhood Team has been working hard
with partner agencies to try to
resolve problems in the area
and to make it a safer and more pleasant place to live, work and visit.
The Safer Neighbourhoods programme is about providing local areas with
dedicated teams of police officers, Police Community Support Officers,
Special Constables, partners and your own community representatives.
Your Safer Neighbourhood team was launched
in November and the inaugural meeting was well-attended by police
officers, residents, councillors and school representatives.
During the meeting, three priorities were identified for the team to
tackle in the
coming months. These are:
·
Dog
fouling
·
Litter
·
Anti-social behaviour and underage drinking.
These areas will be
targeted by the partner agencies and we will keep you updated as to our
progress.
The team has
already been busy making contact with people in the community. We visited
Chapel-en-le-Frith High School with one of the
force drugs dogs to carry out a
training exercise. We were not expecting to find any drugs but the
team enjoyed meeting pupils and staff.
PCSO Julie Shaw, who often patrols the
area by bicycle, has been giving cycling proficiency lessons to youngsters
at Chapel-en-le-Frith Primary School to help them stay safe on the roads.
We have held a
crime prevention event at the Chapel-en-le-Frith branch
of Morrisons. We offered information and advice and distributed purse
chains, panic alarms and property marking pens so that if items are
stolen, they can be returned to their owners.
