Every neighbourhood in Thames Valley has a dedicated Neighbourhood Policing team.

Neighbourhood Policing teams can be contacted via 101, the Thames Valley Police non-emergency number. Always call 999 in an emergency.

Neighbourhood Policing teams…
  • Are led by senior police officers and include police community support officers (PCSOs), often together with volunteer police officers, volunteers and partners.
  • May serve one or several neighbourhoods.
  • Work with local people and partners to identify, tackle and prevent local, low-level crime, anti-social behaviour, and any ongoing concerns.
  • Provide you with a visible, accessible and accountable police service and aim to make your neighbourhood safer.
  • Have been present in every Thames Valley neighbourhood since 1 April 2008.
  • Focus all of their efforts on their dedicated neighbourhoods, building relationships with local people.
Neighbourhood Policing…
  • Needs you to tell us about the issues that concern you in your area.
  • Has transformed policing at a local level, to meet the needs of local communities.
  • Is known as ‘Safer Neighbourhoods’ in Milton Keynes.

Have Your Say logo From the start of 2010, Thames Valley Police extended its neighbourhood consultation by introducing a wider range of publicised opportunities to meet neighbourhood teams.

We will provide open monthly meetings to allow the public to influence our priorities. These meetings will be branded as Have Your Say opportunities, and in many cases will be held in conjunction with partners.

Once local priorities have been identified, a broader ‘toolkit’ of problem-solving tactics is being made available to ensure crime and anti-social behaviour is tackled effectively.

Across the Thames Valley area, there are many successful Neighbourhood Action Groups which will continue to deliver local problem solving, but the introduction of Have Your Say meetings will allow neighbourhood teams to identify more quickly those specific local priorities that need attention.

Thames Valley Police views the introduction of Have Your Say meetings as a positive step in tackling issues that matter most to the public. I welcome your support and engagement in this endeavour.

Current Priorities

Issue

The Illegal use of E-Scooters & E-Motorbikes on paths within the areas have been highlighted as a Top Priority in the recent Neighbourhood Priorities Survey by local residents on August 1st 2025. These priorities will be focussed on for 3 months.

Action

The Neighbourhood Team will conduct patrols in areas that E-Scooter and E-Motorbike use is widespread. Illegal riders will have their vehicles seized using Section 165 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 (RTA) and other RTA offences may be dealt with accordingly.

Issue

Speeding on Crowthorne Road leading into Crowthorne. Noise complaints of loud exhaust from cars and bikes during the night.

Action

Speed Operations have been conducted however the noise complaints, we are limited to what we can do as we do not have registrations of vehicles.

Officers have been in the area but due to times of these calls normally after 22.00hrs and into the early hours of the morning, we have not managed to catch anyone.

Issue

Anti-Social Behaviour has been highlighted as a Top Priority in the recent Neighbourhood Priorities Survey by local residents in Sandhurst & Crowthorne

Bracknell South NHPT will continue to focus efforts on the issue.

This includes Car Meets taking place in The Meadows

Action

The neighbourhood team will conduct high-visibility patrols during peak times. Currently, the issues are primarily occurring in the evenings, so the team will use their late shifts to maintain a visible presence in the areas. They will aim to stop and engage with individuals suspected of causing problems and will perform stop searches when necessary.

Update: 08/08/2025 - A Section 34 Dispersal Order was put in place for an expected 'Vehicle Meet'. As a result, police issued 1 x Warning under Section 59 and 1 x Section 35 direction to leave.
