Almost 300 extra police officers for West Midlands
Birmingham Mail
|September 16, 2025
MUCH-NEEDED new police officers in the West Midlands have been hailed as a “significant step forward” to improving neighbourhood safety.
Cllr Suky Samra, Chair of the Police and Crime Panel, welcomed the addition of 289 Neighbourhood Police Officers and 20 PCSOs who will be based across the region.
All officers are expected to be in post with neighbourhood policing units by the end of this month.
Earlier this year, West Midlands Police and Crime Commissioner Simon Foster announced he had been successful in securing Home Office funding under the Neighbourhood Policing Guarantee to pay for 150 new officers.
In addition to this 139 existing officers are also being redeployed into neighbourhood policing units.
At the panel meeting, members were presented with a report detailing where the additional officers will be based.
