Elections for the Sandton Community Policing Forum (CPF) will be taking place in the near future.
In accordance with the legislation, this means all current Sandton CPF Executive Committee members; sector committees and Sandton Victim Empowerment Programme members must step down by the date on which their elective annual general meetings take place. This process excludes Sector 4 and Sandton CPF Guardians, which had special elective AGMs earlier this year.
Election details:
- Elections for Sandton CPF Sector 1 will take place on 13 November at 6.30pm at the Sandton Police Station. Sector 1 includes Edenburg; Gallo Manor; Khyber Rock; Morningside Manor Ext. 2; Rivonia; Sunninghill; Woodlands; and Woodmead.

However, new volunteers are encouraged to step up and bring their enthusiasm and energy on board. The Sandton CPF relies on volunteers and cannot make a difference without community participation.
The general public is welcome and encouraged to submit nominations that meet the selection criteria. Nominees are required to live in the sector in which they are applying to represent. Nominees are required to undergo police clearance in order to qualify, which is a straightforward process that takes place at the Sandton Police Station.
