POLICE are inviting residents to a meeting in Winchester to give their views on keeping the area safe.

It is aimed at people living in Stanmore, St Cross, Badger Farm, and Oliver's Battery.

The meeting is being organised by officers at Twyford Police Station, who patrol the southern parts of Winchester.

They want to hear what are the most important issues in the area according to residents.

The top three issues will be treated as a priority by police, and could receive extra resources as a result.

The meeting is open to all and will take place at St Luke's Church in Battery Hill, Stanmore, at 7.30pm on Friday, February 12.
