The Community Advisory Group has been running for some years in various forms, however since the pandemic, Bailiwick Law Enforcement have reformatted the meetings to give them a more specific focus. While they still exist to facilitate two way discussion between the community and law enforcement, the sessions will now revolve around themes, to allow thoughts and feelings around issues to be drawn out.
Going forwards, the group aims to meet two to three times a year.

How do I get involved with the Community Advisory Group?
- The CAG has a core of group members comprised of established community group contacts. There is, however, a desire to reach a wider, more diverse group of attendees. As such, if you are interested in participating in future events, please email Community@guernsey.pnn.police.uk to register interest. Upcoming events will be advertised on the Community Advisory Group page of the Police website, as well as advertised on BLE social media.
Past Events
- The latest CAG event took place on Wednesday 18th May discussing Road Harmony. A summary of the meeting can be found in the downloads section of this page.
- The first event with the new structure took place on Tuesday 7th September discussing Violence and Intimidation Against Women and Girls (VIAWG). It was well attended and generated a number of actions for the organisation to take away, which are listed in the summary of the meeting which is in the downloads section of this page. Guernsey Police will be working with some attendees going forwards.
