The Neighbourhood Action Panel (NAP) is a forum set up by the
Essex Police to address issues and concerns raised by members of
the local community.
IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, LET THE NAP RESOLVE IT!
If you are worried about issues in your area such
as: criminal damage, anti-social behaviour, speeding cars or
mopeds, noise or youth nuisance. Then why not take the issue
or problem along to your local area Neighbourhood Action Panel so
you, the community members and the agencies can
help find the solution/s TOGETHER.
Neighbourhood Action Panels (NAPs)are led and directly
managed by Essex Police. Each NAP may consist of
representatives from the local community, residents associations,
children and young people, voluntary agencies, schools and faith
groups, Town and Parish Councillors and where applicable other
statutory groups that are best placed to make a valuable
contribution to the multi agency problem solving of issues
that matter most to the communities living within the area.

Each NAP or as they are also known in some areas Neighbourhood
Meeting determines the top three priorities for their area and
these are then raised at the relevant area (Braintree,
Witham or Halstead) Police Community Safety Joint Action
Group meeting (also known as JAG). Raising the priorities at
the JAG enables a wider audience of partner agencies to support and
where necessary assist in the problem solving approach; thus
seeking the best possible outcome.
