Current Priorities

Issue

Frome Neighbourhood Team have been patrolling Frome town, liaising with retailers and showing a visible presence in and around our most affected areas. We work closely with Westway Security, continue to listen to the concerns of our community and respond with targeted patrols. We will look to deal with prolific shop lifters robustly.

By reporting incidents to us, we can work together to prevent further incidents of shop theft. https://www.avonandsomerset.police.uk/report/.

Town Centre Engagement
The Frome Neighbourhood Policing Team has been carrying out high-visibility patrols in Frome Town Centre in response to a recent increase in shop thefts, particularly around Catherine Hill. As a result, this area has received focused attention. The team has also been working closely with local response units to enhance visibility during night shifts.

Issue

  • We have heard about the reports of anti-social behaviour in Victoria and Mary Baily Park. Keeping public spaces safe and enjoyable for the community is so important, and tackling these issues early can make a real difference.

Since you've already identified motorbike-related incidents and general anti-social behaviour as key concerns, we are exploring ways to address these with local authorities or community groups. Increased patrols or even community engagement initiatives could all help to deter disruptive behaviour.

We are actively asking people to report to the police any concerns of Anti-Social Behaviour in the park areas. If you do see people on motorbike in the park area, we encourage people to call 999 at the time that this is happening so that police can tackle the issues an attend the area to catch the people reasonable and to take appropriate action where needed. Any anti-social behaviour that is not on going or feel does not need to an immediate response then please report on 101 or online at Report anti-social behaviour | Avon and Somerset Police
