Overnight Shed Break Ins

Engagement with the local community to offer safeguarding and crime prevention advice continues both in person and online.

We continue to work with local organisations such as Neighbourhood Watch, who support us in providing their local schemes with burglary prevention advice and awareness.

In the event that a burglary has occurred, we conduct house to house and conduct CCTV and forensic opportunities where possible. Additional patrols are also directed to areas where burglaries occur.

Retail Crime

The Neighbourhood Policing Team will target persistent offenders and engage with partners and local businesses to offer support, conduct preventative work where appropriate and patrol areas of concern.

Our PCSO's visit local retailers offering advice on how to report retail crime which includes shoplifting and abuse towards staff and customers.

Additionally, we support 'Shop Kind' campaigns throughout the year, raising public awareness on retail crime.

Antisocial Behaviour including the use of Off-Road bikes in recreational grounds

Patrols will continue to tackle illegal use of dirt bikes. Ongoing work to increase awareness continues, with the powers to seize bikes being used and summonsing offenders to court.

High visibility patrols continue in areas affected by this.
