Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts (born on the 5th March 1989 in Bulawayo Zimbabwe)[1] was elected the Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner in the 2024 England and Wales police and crime commissioner elections representing the Labour Party.[2] She defeated Angelique Foster of the Conservative Party, the incumbent since 2021.[2] Nicolle now serves as one of the APCC Joint Leads for Economic and Cyber Crime. Their portfolio focuses on addressing critical issues such as online safety, harassment, fraud, hacking and economic crime.
Nicolle holds a degree in Criminology and International Relations from the University of Lincoln. Prior to her role as PCC, she worked as a Business Expansion Specialist in Inward Investment, where she supported a diverse range of high-growth SMEs and global businesses, helping them navigate and accelerate their expansion plans. A strong advocate for public-private partnerships, Nicolle recognises the importance of collaboration in delivering effective solutions in both the physical and digital world we live in. As Vice Chair and Women's Representative on Labour's East Midlands Regional Board, and a former East Midlands Representative on Labour’s National Policy Forum, she understands the transformative power of policies that shape communities for the better.
Nicolle is also a Member of the Nova Education Trust, a cross-phase Multi-Academy Trust that educates over 10,000 pupils and now sits on the East Midlands Cyber Resilience Centre board, contributing to efforts in strengthening the region’s cybersecurity infrastructure, education and support offer for individuals, schools and businesses.
She had previously been a District Councillor on Ashfield District Council for the Hucknall Central Ward and served as a Cabinet Member for the Safer and Stronger Communities portfolio from 2015-2019 before losing her seat to the Ashfield Independents. She was also one of Labour's five East Midlands candidates for the European Parliamentary Elections in 2019.
