WEST Worcestershire MP Sir Michael Spicer will chair a public meeting between police and Upton residents in an attempt to iron out perceived problems in the town.

Sir Michael will be joined at Upton Memorial Hall on Tuesday, July 29, at 7pm, by Chief Superintendent Simon Adams, of West Mercia Constabulary, and Inspector Neville Sheldrick, of Malvern Police Station.

"There is growing concern about policing problems in Upton," said Sir Michael. "This meeting will enable these anxieties to be raised with senior police officers."
