Current Priorities

Issue

1. Begging at Kingsway and locality
2. ASB – Hotspot Policing (street drinking/Drugs/Youth)
3. Op Pindell – Theft of tools from motor vehicles

Action

1: Working in conjunction with various Derby City Council departments to enforce a Public Space Protection Order (PSPO), issuing fixed penalty notices and Community Protection warnings to regular offenders. The PSPO allows officers to disperse persons engaging in anti social behaviour and issue Fixed penalty notices for acts such as littering, begging, loitering and drinking. Working with intervention partners to try and assist in preventing further issues with prolific offenders and supporting their welfare. This work has already been praised by local shops at Kingsway who have noticed a difference already. Increase in plain clothes operations on the run up to Christmas, as well as enhanced patrols for the national week of retail thefts.
2: High visibility patrols aimed at deterring the young people involved in the Anti Social Behaviour ( ASB) identifying any offences and signposting them to a relevant intervention agency. Reports of begging outside shop fronts, deter, prevent and support/ safeguard individuals involved in this. Patrol strategies to be implemented to decrease the occurrence.
3: With a rise in theft of tools or other items from motor vehicles, in particular building vans, we have an engagement plan aimed at visiting builders merchants, hotels where contractors are staying and pop up engagement stands to offer crime prevention advice and tools to minimise the risk of this offence. Colleagues within the Local Policing Unit are aware and patrol overnight.
