Current Priorities

Issue

Public Place Violent Crime

Action

Reducing public place violent crime including VAWG and youth related crime and disorder keeping all communities safe from violence.

Continuing our work alongside partners and support agencies for victims of violent crime, including domestic abuse and VAWG, and to continue raising awareness of support channels advice, and reporting services available to all victims.

In swiftly responding to incidents of public based violence, and using policing powers available, from powers of dispersal, to criminal behaviour orders to crackdown on offending.

Issue

Drug Harm Reduction

Action

Targeting drug related crime in your town through intelligence, enforcement and partnership work.

Police led operations, targeting known areas of drug use and drug dealing, as well as partnership work around known addresses causing drug harm in your area.

Issue

Anti-social behaviour (ASB)

Action

Swiftly responding to incidents of ASB and effectively using policing powers available to intervene - including powers of dispersal where the actions of individuals or groups impact their wider surroundings; which can lead to wider harm, including the misuse of public spaces or buildings, criminal damage or vandalism, for example graffiti or damage to public buildings.

Working with partners and youth organisations, including schools and colleges to identify opportunities for early intervention with individuals at risk of causing ASB.

Addressing and taking action against ASB in the form of nuisance noise, such as noisy cars or motorbikes, noisy neighbours, loud music, or noise from public houses or late night venues.
