Derbyshire

Angelique was elected as Police and Crime Commissioner for Derbyshire in May 2021. 

She has been a key figure in local government politics for more than a decade.

Originally from France, Angelique has lived in Derbyshire for 25 years and is married with a grown up family. 

With a Masters Degree in Law from Sheffield University, she has served as Leader of Dronfield Town Council and as Cabinet member for Corporate Services at Derbyshire County Council with a portfolio that included Finance, Legal, Property, HR and IT, and responsibility for managing a budget of £46million.

Angelique recently resigned from her role to take on her new responsibilities as Derbyshire PCC and is determined to manage the budget effectively to maximise resources for fighting crime.

She has pledged to put the law-abiding citizen at the centre of all policing policies and priorities in Derbyshire to keep local people and their families safe.

Central to her ambitions is reducing the fear of crime across Derbyshire’s communities by increasing police numbers and patrols, providing a strong police presence in towns and villages and supporting Police Officers in the use of powers such as Stop and Search to protect communities from crime.

Angelique also aims to work with the Government to deliver a tougher approach to policing, strengthen partnership work locally to improve safety, tackle antisocial behaviour, drive down burglaries, robberies and theft, improve road safety, fight rural crime and address domestic violence and drug-related crime.
