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.

    We are seeing an increase in rural thefts across the area.
    Please remain vigilant, secure vehicles, machinery and outbuildings, and report any suspicious activity.

    • 999 – if a crime is in progress
    • 101 – non‑emergency

    We are conducting targeted patrols in the area

    We are are getting calls in relation to parking outside schools

    The yellow "School Keep Clear" zig-zag markings outside the school are there to protect children by ensuring drivers and pedestrians have a clear view of the road. Vehicles must not stop, wait, or park on these markings during the times shown on the accompanying signs, even for a quick drop-off or collection

    We kindly ask parents and carers to:

    • Avoid parking on or near school zig-zag markings.
    • Consider parking a short distance away and walking the remainder of the journey.
    • Be mindful of local residents by not blocking driveways or access points.
    • Allow extra time for drop-off and collection during busy periods.

    We would also like to advise that additional patrols will be taking place around local schools during drop-off and pick-up times. These patrols aim to promote road safety, educate drivers, and address any parking issues that may place children at risk.
