Current Priorities

Issue

Antisocial behaviour, damage to communal parks, danger to other road users and pedestrians, perceived threat to individuals safety and illegal drug use.

Action

The team are in the process of gathering intelligence and urge our communities to continue to report these issues to us on a regular basis with as much information as possible. This then allows us to act upon the intelligence received and make bids for more specialist resources to assist.

Issue

Damage caused to The Hagard Community Centre, and the Library, damage to bus stops. This has a significant impact on already stretched public resources that are available for all of our communities to use, it degrades the appearance of a vibrant community and increases the perception of the area being unsafe to visit.

Action

Priority patrols have been increased in the area and intelligence gathering is underway to identify those responsible. There has been an increase in youth activity in this area and we are in the process of identifying these individuals and taking positive action against them and their families. Further intelligence gathering and analysis is being conducted to improve security measures in the area and priority patrols increased from both the neighbourhood team and the newly relocated response teams for Coventry.

Issue

There are a number of locations across the neighbourhoods that we cover that are subject to sustained and daily shop theft offences. These are located at both retail parks and small independent local stores. This causes significant impact on the businesses subject to the thefts and impacts on the safety of staff and customers at the stores.

Action

An increase in both overt and covert responses and proactive patrols at the locations subject to the most harm. Of note we have secured arrests and convictions of a number of prolific offenders for shop theft across the neighbourhood over the last 3-4 months for 100's of offences. We have been successful in working with our offender management teams to secure criminal behaviour orders against some of these offenders and have provided opportunities to divert individuals into drug and alcohol treatment programmes.
