My Community Voice

My Community Voice is a new messaging service from Kent Police that helps residents, businesses, and community groups across the county keep in touch with their local policing teams.

Officers will post real-time messages about local matters that may affect you or your community, such as updates on scams, appeals, anti-social behaviour, events and more.

This innovative system is more than just a messaging service; it allows you to reply to the alerts officers upload, share information and tell officers about the issues affecting you.

You will be able to play an active part in police appeals as well as being kept up to date with what’s happening in your local area.

Unlike social media, My Community Voice is a secure and personal messaging system that allows you to determine what type of messages you receive and how. The service sends updates about your local area directly from the police officers themselves.

Superintendent Pete Steenhuis said: ‘My Community Voice is a great tool that gives the public a chance to get useful information specific to their area while also being active participants in helping to prevent and detect crime and anti-social behaviour.

‘It gives local communities the chance to decide exactly what information they receive from Kent Police and enables them to be notified via email, text or voice note.

‘Kent Police is committed to engaging with communities across Kent and Medway to help protect people from harm and My Community Voice can further enable the police and public to work together to both reduce and prevent crime.’

My Community Voice will allow Kent Police to hear your voice on the issues impacting you in your community either through direct engagement with officers following an alert or through surveys provided by your local officer to the local community. Sign up and make your voice count.
