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 encourage residents to continue using our community messaging platforms to report non-emergency concerns. Your data is vital in helping us allocate resources where they are needed most.
