Current Priorities

Issue

While violent crime remains low in the district, we understand when local people say that any incident involving violence causes concern.

Action

Where incidents of violent crime are reported, our officers will continue to maintain a visible presence in those areas. We remain committed to working closely with Maldon District Council to address community concerns and respond proactively to emerging trends.

Issue

Anti-social behaviour remains a key concern in our neighbourhoods.

Action

Working alongside our local partners - including the Tri-Service Officer and Maldon District Council - we will continue to respond to reports of anti-social behaviour. This includes patrolling areas where such behaviour has been reported, in order to deter further incidents, engage with those responsible, and take appropriate action when necessary

Issue

Local residents have told us that speeding and anti-social driving remain key concerns in the community. This is entirely understandable, especially given the disproportionately high number of serious and fatal collisions that have occurred in the district.

Action

In response, we have deployed speed checks in areas where residents have raised concerns. While these checks do identify speeding drivers, they also serve as a visible reminder, encouraging all road users to reflect on and adjust their behaviour- ultimately helping to make our roads safer for everyone.

Steampunk Essextraordinaire

Join us for a cup of tea or coffee and meet some of the officers who work in your community.

Officers from your Neighbourhood policing team will be on hand to listen to your concerns about crime or antisocial behaviour, where you live or work. We can discuss solutions to the problems you raise, and where needed, work with our local partners to resolve ongoing issues. And if it's something we already know about, we can talk about what we’re doing to address it. It’s important that you talk to us about the things that are causing you concern in your community. If we have a better understanding of what’s happening, we can work to fix it.

So come and talk to us and get to know those who are looking after your community over a cup of tea or coffee.

Please note that the event may be cancelled at short notice due to operational demands. If this is the case, we will let you know as soon as we can by posting on the district Facebook and Twitter pages.
