People will have the chance to raise issues with local police officers at a meeting next week.

Members of the public have been invited to meet their Essex Police team at the evening meeting in Roydon Village Hall, Harlow Road, on Thursday (February 18).

The meeting comes ahead of planned cuts on April 1, with stations set to close and 16 out of 26 police community support officers (PCSOs) in Epping Forest and Brentwood losing their jobs.

The open meeting runs for an hour from 6.30pm on Thursday.
