Policing in Warwickshire is divided into 5 Districts/Boroughs which are in line with the Local District or Borough Council areas.

As part of the Governance Framework adopted by the Authority, one member of the Authority has been appointed to the role of District/Borough Partnership head for each of the 5 areas.

The 5 members are (to find information from an area click the district/borough name; to find out information on the member representing the area click their name):

These members are primarily responsible for leading for the Authority in working with the force to develop local policing arrangements by engaging with local communities and partners. Part of their role includes attending community forum meetings but it is not possible for them to attend all meetings across the county. The Authority has therefore put in place arrangements to ensure that, wherever possible, an Authority member attends all community forum meetings.

 

 

Geography of Warwickshire

Warwickshire lies to the south and east of the West Midlands conurbation, and has established links with Coventry, Birmingham and Solihull in the West Midlands region, but also with the South East. Despite the focus of population within the main towns of the County, a significant part of Warwickshire is rural in nature.

The county of Warwickshire covers an area 736 Sq Miles (197,855 Hectares or 1,979 km2) and has an estimated population of 530,700 (mid 2008 estimate), this equates to 268 persons per sq. km.

Warwickshire lies at the heart of Britain’s transport network and several key strategic routes pass through the County.

Warwickshire is a two-tier local authority and comprises five District/Borough areas:

  • North Warwickshire Borough
  • Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough
  • Rugby Borough
  • Stratford-on-Avon District
  • Warwick District

At the last general election in 2010, Warwickshire was made up of six parliamentary constituencies: North Warwickshire, Nuneaton, Rugby, Southam & Kenilworth, Stratford-on-Avon, and Warwick & Leamington.
