Current Priorities

Issue

Antisocial behaviour - General.

Action

Beat officers are conducting regular patrols to address general antisocial behaviour (ASB) in the community. Where appropriate, ASB legislation is being used to take enforcement action and support longer-term problem solving.

Issue

Fraud.

Action

Safety and awareness messages are being shared via My Community Voice in partnership with the Fraud Awareness Team to help inform and protect residents. Patrols have been increased to target rogue traders, and follow-up visits are being carried out with victims to provide support, strengthen security, and reduce the risk of repeat offences.

Issue

Wildlife crime issues.

Action

We are increasing awareness around the illegal use of catapults and enforcing relevant legislation, including the use of search powers where appropriate. We are also working in partnership with the Rural Task Force to address and prevent wildlife crimes more effectively.
