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.

  • Priority:

    Off Road Bikes & Speeding vehicles

    Issued 01 March 2026

    Action taken:

    Community Speed watch has been conducted on the high street in GREATHAM in relation to concerns raised by residents of vehicles not following the speed limit. Likewise officers have attended parish council meetings where a key point of concern has been off road bikes. Due to this officers within HARTLEPOOL have been focusing on seizing off road bikes where numerous ones have been destroyed by police. Off road bike reports have decreased within HARTLEPOOL as a whole by approximately 50 % . Officers would like to remind residents to report any relevant information where bikes are being stored to police.

    Actioned 01 March 2026

  • Priority:

    Antisocial behaviour

    Issued 01 March 2026

    Action taken:

    We continue to work closely with partner agencies and local education providers to reduce the harm caused by anti social behaviour across our communities. This is an ongoing priority, and we remain focused on preventing issues before they escalate by combining enforcement with meaningful education and diversionary opportunities. Our teams will proactively target key locations and individuals involved in persistent ASB to protect residents from becoming victims of crime. Alongside this, we will make full use of the civil and criminal legislation available to us, including Community Protection Notices, Criminal Behaviour Orders, and tenancy enforcement measures where appropriate. These tools allow us to intervene effectively while still considering long term solutions that steer individuals away from offending. By blending robust enforcement with early intervention and support, we aim to create safer neighbourhoods and reduce the impact of ASB on those who live and work within our communities.

  • Priority:

    Rural Crime

    Issued 01 March 2026

    Action taken:

    As part of our ongoing rural crime strategy, we continue to hold and attend regular rural crime meetings to understand the issues having the greatest impact on those who live and work in our rural areas. Through Operation Checkpoint, we work closely with neighbouring forces and local partners to identify travelling criminals and disrupt their activity. Our teams also maintain strong engagement with farm run establishments, offering advice, gathering intelligence, and strengthening relationships that help us respond quickly and effectively. Tackling off road bikes and the nuisance they cause remains a key priority, and we carry out targeted patrols at peak times to maximise our visibility and opportunities to intervene. The drone unit plays an essential role in this work, allowing us to cover large areas efficiently and respond directly to the concerns raised by our rural communities.

    Actioned 01 March 2026

  • Priority:

    Rural Crime

    Issued 26 May 2026

    Action taken:

    Rural crime continues to be a priority across Elwick, Dalton Piercy and Hart Village, where the impact of such offences is often felt more deeply due to the isolated nature of these communities. Residents and landowners have highlighted concerns ranging from off‑road bike nuisance to theft, criminal damage, and suspicious activity linked to travelling criminals. We remain committed to addressing these issues through a combination of targeted enforcement, strong partnership working, and sustained engagement with those who live and work in our rural areas.

    As part of our ongoing rural crime strategy, we continue to hold and attend regular rural crime meetings to ensure we fully understand the issues having the greatest impact. These meetings allow us to share intelligence, identify emerging patterns, and coordinate our response with partner agencies, local authority teams, and community representatives. This collaborative approach ensures that our activity is focused, informed, and responsive to the needs of rural residents.

    Through Operation Checkpoint, we work closely with neighbouring forces and local partners to identify travelling criminals and disrupt their activity before they can cause harm. This cross‑border cooperation is essential in rural areas, where offenders often move quickly between locations to avoid detection. Our teams also maintain strong engagement with farm‑run establishments, offering crime‑prevention advice, gathering intelligence, and strengthening relationships that help us respond quickly and effectively when incidents occur.

    Tackling off‑road bikes and the nuisance they cause remains a key priority. These vehicles can cause significant damage to farmland, disturb livestock, and create safety risks for residents. We carry out targeted patrols at peak times to maximise visibility and increase opportunities to intervene. The drone unit plays an essential role in this work, allowing us to cover large areas efficiently, locate offenders, and respond directly to concerns raised by our rural communities.

    We remain committed to protecting Elwick, Dalton Piercy and Hart Village by combining proactive policing, community intelligence, and strong partnership working. Our focus is on reducing harm, preventing crime, and ensuring that rural residents feel safe, supported, and heard.

    Actioned 26 May 2026

  • Priority:

    Anti Social behaviour

    Issued 26 May 2026

    Action taken:

    Anti‑social behaviour (ASB) remains a key priority across the ward, with residents, businesses, and partner agencies continuing to raise concerns about the impact it has on daily life. We recognise the harm that persistent ASB can cause ranging from intimidation and nuisance behaviour to criminality and we remain committed to reducing these issues through a balanced, proactive, and partnership‑led approach.

    We continue to work closely with partner agencies and local education providers to reduce the harm caused by ASB across our communities. This collaborative work is essential in ensuring that young people and vulnerable individuals are offered meaningful education, guidance, and diversionary opportunities that help prevent issues from escalating. By addressing the root causes of behaviour early, we aim to reduce the likelihood of repeat incidents and support individuals in making positive choices.

    Our teams will proactively target key locations and individuals involved in persistent ASB to protect residents from becoming victims of crime. This includes regular high‑visibility patrols, targeted problem‑solving activity, and intelligence‑led deployments to areas where concerns have been raised. We will continue to listen to the community and adapt our approach as new issues emerge.

    Alongside prevention and early intervention, we will make full use of the civil and criminal legislation available to us. This includes Community Protection Notices, Criminal Behaviour Orders, and tenancy enforcement measures where appropriate. These tools allow us to intervene effectively, place restrictions on those causing harm, and support housing providers in maintaining safe and secure living environments. Enforcement is an important part of our strategy, but it is always used alongside efforts to encourage long‑term behavioural change.

    By blending robust enforcement with early intervention, education, and support, we aim to create safer neighbourhoods and reduce the impact of ASB on those who live and work within our communities. Our focus remains on preventing harm, protecting victims, and ensuring that everyone feels safe and confident in their local area.

    We will continue to work closely with residents, partners, and community groups to ensure concerns are heard and addressed. Your information and feedback play a vital role in shaping our priorities and helping us target our resources where they are needed most. Together, we will continue to build a safer, stronger community.

    Actioned 26 May 2026

  • Priority:

    Off road/Nuisance Motorbikes/E-scooters/E-bikes

    Issued 26 May 2026

    Action taken:

    Tackling the illegal and dangerous use of off‑road bikes, e‑scooters and e‑bikes remains a key priority for the ward. These vehicles cause significant disruption, pose serious risks to pedestrians and road users, and contribute to wider anti‑social behaviour. Over recent months, however, we have seen a significant decrease in reports. This reduction is the direct result of targeted policing activity, strong partnership working, and the successful “designing out” of crime in hotspot locations. By removing opportunities for offenders and making key areas less accessible for illegal riding, we have been able to make a noticeable and positive impact.

    We remain committed to working closely with our community and partner organisations to address this issue in every way possible. In several locations, we have taken steps to redesign or adapt the physical environment to prevent access for off‑road bikes and other illegal vehicles. This includes installing barriers, improving lighting, altering pathways, and working with local authority teams to identify long‑term environmental solutions. These measures have already helped reduce offending in areas that were previously persistent hotspots.

    Education is also a central part of our approach. We are increasing our engagement with local schools and youth settings to raise awareness about the dangers and consequences of using illegal e‑scooters and e‑bikes. Many young people are unaware that these vehicles cannot legally be used on public roads or pavements, or that they can be seized and destroyed. By helping young people understand the risks to themselves, to others, and to their future opportunities we aim to prevent these behaviours before they begin. Early intervention remains one of the most effective tools in reducing long‑term harm.

    Community intelligence continues to play a vital role in our work. We rely heavily on information from residents about where these vehicles are being stored or used. When we know where they are kept, we can take action to remove them from the streets. Seized vehicles are not returned or resold they are destroyed, ensuring they cannot cause further harm or be passed on to new riders. This process is essential in breaking the cycle of repeat offending and preventing illegal vehicles from circulating within the community.

    Our commitment to enforcement remains strong. We will continue to use all available powers to seize illegal vehicles, prosecute offenders, and disrupt organised groups involved in supplying or modifying them. At the same time, we will maintain our focus on prevention, education, and partnership working to ensure long‑term, sustainable improvements.

    By combining targeted enforcement, environmental design, community reporting, and youth engagement, we aim to keep our neighbourhoods safe, reduce harm, and maintain the downward trend in incidents involving off‑road bikes, e‑scooters and e‑bikes.
