We welcome feedback from the public and want you to engage with us. We want you to let us know about the issues you have in your area,  how we can support your community and what you would like us to do in your area on a regular basis; that could be a ‘Talk to Us’ surgery were you can come along and speak to us about policing issues or to get crime prevention advice and find out who we are and what we do or we can run policing Masterclasses where we can deliver an event to educate communities about Drugs, ASB, Fraud, Child Sexual Exploitation, Modern Day Slavery etc. and provide signposting to support agencies.

We would also like to see an increase in Community SpeedWatch and Neighbourhood Watch schemes where communities take ownership for issues in there area, play a pivotal role in helping to tackle issues and get regular support from the police.

If you have any information about criminality or issues in your area, are interested in forming or becoming involved with Neighbourhood Watch or SpeedWatch or just want to speak to us, please make contact with us using the contact form at the bottom of this webpage.

Two new Speedwatch groups have started in Backwell and I will be aiming to join them on some of their Speedwatch sessions

Current Locations:Long pathway (behind Skylark Grove), Wrington  Please note: StreetSafe is not for reporting crimes or emergencies. If you witness a crime or emergency, please call the police on 101 or report a crime online. If you're unsure whether something is a crime or not, read our advice.

Examples of situations that should be reported to StreetSafe include a poorly lit alleyway that makes you feel unsafe or a park with broken equipment that poses a safety hazard.

Street safe patrols are vital in our battle to combat crime and anti-social behaviour. If you have any areas in you neighbourhood that you feel would benefit from an increased police presence, please contact your local neighbourhood with details.

We have seen an increase in the number of complaints around people using residential streets to park their vehicles while they go on holiday.

Where vehicles are parked illegally, dangerously or causing an obstruction, we will issue a ticket and authorise removal of the vehicle if appropriate for the offence; this will result in a fine and a release fee for the vehicle as well as a daily charge for the storage of the vehicle.

We are aware of issues relating to airport parking, and we are continuing to work closely with the airport and several other agencies to combat this issue and target unscrupulous parking companies.
