About us

Local policing teams are groups of officers dedicated to serving the community. Teams are made up of officers based in the area, supported by additional officers from the wider area. 

Teams work closely with local authorities, organisations, partners and residents to decide policing priorities. This helps teams find long-term solutions to local problems.

Policing priorities

  • Priority:

    Action taken:

  • Priority:

    Over the past few months there was been a large increase in reports of antisocial behaviour around the Snow Hill estate. Predominantly, these reports have come from the Berkeley House block.

    The reports have centred around:

    • non-residents accessing the blocks
    • drug dealing and use
    • rough sleeping in communal areas, blocking access up and down stairways or to lifts
    • verbal abuse of residents
    • littering and mess being left in communal areas

    We are working closely with Curo to address these issues.

    Issued 01 April 2026

    Action taken:

    Civil injunctions: Several arrests have been made in relation to the existing injunctions previously ordered by the courts. We are continuing to support Curo as we consider further applications targeting the most impactful offenders, both resident and non-resident.
    ASB powers: In addition to the previous CPW/CPNs that we had issued; we are escalating three CPWs to CPNs, allowing us to bring offenders before the courts if they breach this order by attending the Snow Hill area, and a new CPW has been issued.
    Regular patrols: Patrols remain ongoing from Neighbourhood and Response Officers. Our Neighbourhood Tasking Team are also completing additional patrols on top of these.
    Partnership working: We are in regular contact with Curo staff both on the ground with the estates team in Snow Hill, and with the Tenancy Team in the office. Curo have recently resecured the block with new key card fobs and removed coded access that non-residents were using to get into Berkeley House.
    Arrests: In addition to the arrests for injunction breaches mentioned above, our teams have made arrests in relation to weapons, drugs, warrants and other offences in the Snow Hill area.

    Actioned 19 May 2026

  • Priority:

    We understand the impact that shoplifting is having on businesses in the City Centre. 

    We are working with shops to help them report accurately and effectively, targeting our most prolific offenders.

    We are conducting proactive patrols in hotspot areas, and around stores most effected by shoplifters.

    We host a monthly Retailers Security Meeting alongside Bath BID. At this meeting we help stores identify regular shoplifters, and bring their attention to any new offenders and offending trends.

    Issued 05 January 2026

    Action taken:

    April Update:
    In the past month the City Centre Team have worked with our Neighbourhood Tasking Team to arrest and charge several prolific shoplifters.
    Split between five offenders we have made a number of arrests that have led to (among others) charges of:
    25x Shop Thefts, 5x breaches of Criminal Behaviour Orders, and 1x Burglary.
    Two offenders have already been sentenced at the courts and have received almost two years imprisonment between them, and one has been issued with a Criminal Behaviour Order that we applied for in conjunction with our Antisocial Behaviour Team.
    The remaining offenders have future court dates set for the coming months.

    Actioned 24 April 2026

  • Priority:

    We are committed to making the night-time economy (NTE) a safe place for all in Bath. In particular, we have a focus on ensuring Women and Girls are free from harassment, violence and other offences associated with the NTE. 

    Issued 24 December 2025

    Action taken:

    This priority will be closed and merged with “Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls” as there is a significant amount of crossover between these pieces of work.

    Actioned 01 April 2026

  • Priority:

    We are aware of increasing community concern around antisocial behaviour on Kingsmead Square. We have begun engaging with businesses and residents in the area to best understand when problems are occurring, and who is primarily responsible.

    The behaviour reported typically involves the street community, use of drink/drugs, with some complaints received about inappropriate language and verbal abuse directed at members of the public.

    Patrols are ongoing, including extra patrols funded by the Home Office.

    We have a good track record recently of using tools like Community Protection Warnings, Community Protection Notices and Criminal Behaviour Orders to exclude offenders from areas they are impacting. These orders require evidence from the community so we strongly encourage members of the public to report any antisocial behaviour they witness either to officers out on patrol or online: www.avonandsomerset.police.uk/report/anti-social-behaviour/

    Issued 04 October 2025

    Action taken:

    Patrols have continued throughout the Christmas Market period, with ongoing support from officers on Home Office funded Overtime Patrols, as well as Bath BID Security Marshals.
    Despite the increase in footfall we have seen a decrease in reports of crime and antisocial behaviour in the area.
    This priority will now be closed, though patrols will remain a part of daily business.

    Actioned 01 December 2025
