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:

    The use of mechanically-propelled vehicles, such as E-Scooters or E-Bikes that do not require pedalling, is not permitted on the road or any public spaces including footpaths and bridle ways.

    They are covered by the same laws and regulations that cover all motor vehicles. As such if you are caught using such transport you are liable to the same penalties as if you were using a motor vehicle.

    Such as fines or penalty points under Road Traffic Regulations including seizure of the transport device.

    In recent months, we have received a number of complaints about the use of E Transport in Peasedown St John, Neighbourhood Officers will be speaking to E Transport users to educate and if necessary, enforce current legislation.

    Issued 06 October 2025

    Action taken:

    An illegal electric bicycle was seized by Neighbourhood Officers last week in in the Midsomer Norton area.  The bicycle was capable of independent propulsion, and the pedal assistance was active too well beyond 15mph.

    Actioned 14 May 2026

  • Priority:

    There are increasing reports of youths or young people who are driving cars without either licence or not in accordance with their licence.  The cars are in some cases uninsured, untaxed and are not road legal i.e. with no MOT.  They are driving around the area sometimes with several other people who are of a same or similar age.

    We are aware youths are either purchasing cars for a low price on facebook or taking parents cars in the middle of the night.

    We are encouraging parents to have conversations with their young people around the dangers of this behaviour, and we are asking members of the public to report any suspicious activity, driving or sightings that maybe linked.

    Issued 14 February 2026

    Although reports of underage youths driving vehicles illegally have decreased, your Neighbourhood Team is aware that incidents are still occurring.
    We are continuing to ask members of the public to contact their local Neighbourhood Team with any information that may assist in identifying, tracking, and seizing these vehicles.
    Your support is vital in helping us address this issue and keep our community safe.

    Actioned 14 May 2026

  • Priority:

    The Neighbourhood Policing Team are looking into various reports of ASB in and around Peasedown St John, particularly on Orchard Way. In recent weeks damage has been caused to bus shelters and trees. Also, there have been incidents of doors being knocked on in the very early hours and reports that a group of young males are involved in killing wildlife such as birds and hedgehogs.

    The group of young males involved in this behaviour are said to be aged around 14 years.  Although the number of official reports to Police is limited the Neighbourhood Team are aware of several incidents that have not been reported.

    We are asking the public to report incidents of criminal damage wildlife crime and ASB to Police either by calling 101 or filling out an online report using the link below.  If you have any information as to the identity of those responsible for any of the incidents described, please contact your local Neighbourhood Policing Team
