We need you... Ward Panel Secretary !

Dear All Residents,

Are you organised, reliable and interested in supporting your local community ? We’re looking for a Volunteer Ward Panel Secretary to assist our Ward Panel Chair to help support the work of our local Ward Panel in Ealing Common. 

What is a ward panel ? 

A ward panel is a group of community members and partner agencies that meets with a representative of the SNT at least every 3 months to set local SNT ward priorities and hold the SNT to account for issues affecting the community. 

A ward panel will feed information and emerging issues directly to local officers, helping to shape and deliver local priorities and inform supervisors. Ward panel decisions must be evidence-based and inform, influence and involve both the community and police officers as part of a continuous cycle of feedback, review and action.

What Does a Ward Panel Secretary do ?

The role of the Secretary is to assist the Chair and Panel with administration and keeping records of each meeting this will include taking minutes, drafting of the next meeting’s agenda, sending out ward panel invitations by email, circulating information to members and running the ward panel meeting when the chair is not present. 

Why get involved ? 

No Specialist experience is required – Good organisation skills, attention to detail and basic IT skills are the key requirements. Support and guidance will be provided by the Ward panel chair and Ealing Common Safer neighbourhoods policing team.

Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions going forward. 

We look forward to hearing from you. 

Ealing Common Safer Neighbourhoods Team
