The role of Police and Crime Commissioner for Derbyshire is almost over for Angelique Foster who has held the role since taking over from Labour's Hardyal Dhindsa in May 2021.
The May 2nd 2024 elections determined both a regional Mayor for Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire as well as a PCC.
Although Ms Foster stood again for the Conservatives, she was beaten by 28,000 votes by Labour's Nicolle Ndiweni who registered 93,260 votes to Ms Foster's 65,293.
The Reform UK party's Russell Armstrong came third with 32,944 votes and the Liberal Democrats' David Hancock polled 22,540 votes.
The turnout was just 26.6% with 803,297 votes in total.
Ms Ndiweni will take up Office on Thursday 9th May and serve a four-year term until May 2028.
More information about Nicolle Ndiweni and her plans for policing Derbyshire can be found on her personal website.
The role of the PCC
Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) are elected representatives who oversee how crime is tackled in a police force area. Their aim is to cut crime and to ensure the police force is effective.
PCCs work with the police and other partners to cut crime, give the public a voice at the highest level, hold Chief Constables to account for performance and help restore trust and confidence.
