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.

    Reduce Antisocial Behaviour

    Antisocial behaviour (ASB) is defined as 'behaviour by a person which causes, or is likely to cause, harassment, alarm or distress to persons not of the same household as the person'. There are three main categories of ASB which depends on how many people are affected; personal ASB, nuisance ASB, and environmental ASB. This can include littering, noise, inconsiderate behaviour, nuisance calls, antisocial driving, abandoned vehicles, begging, and street drinking.

    To reduce and target ASB in the community the East Devon Neighbourhood team work with partner agencies such as East Devon Council, local schools, local shops, pubs, and Highways.

    Issued 02 September 2026

    Action taken:

    During August, officers have began to collate stakeholders to get together in order to try and work out a working strategy for anti-social driving. The Seaton neighbourhood team are aware of this being a large issue within the community and are working to try and minimise the issue as much as possible. Officers have placed the new speeding device in regular ASB hotspots in order to confirm where the hotspots are exactly are. Mobile ASB patrols have been completed.
    An antisocial incident occurred within Seaton Tesco and Royal Observer Way late into the month. A group of teenagers were found to be causing harassment, alarm and distress to residents around the area. Officers were called to the scene and manged to catch up with the group of youths. As a result of this all of the youths have received an antisocial warning letter with regards to the alarm their actions caused.
    Your team have also been supporting the local youth group with RESTORE on a Friday evening where local children attend for games, sport activities, food and socialisation. We will continue to support the youth team with ongoing activities going forward which gives us the opportunity to engage with the youths breaking down barriers.

    Rural Crime & Engagement Rural crime is an issue for large areas of the country, but it tends to go unreported. It can impact on insurance premiums, food prices, the environment, and can damage local communities. The Seaton Neighbourhood Team are conducting a visible presence in the rural community to offer reassurance and crime prevention. The aim is to improve connectivity with the rural communities and provide education to users of our beautiful countryside. This includes attending rural events to gain knowledge about the issues effecting the rural communities and to offer the crime prevention advice. Included within this we will be targeting Road Safety throughout our rural areas in attempt to reduce collisions.

    Issued 02 September 2026

    Action taken:

    Throughout August we have continued to engage with our rural communities. We have attended a number of events such as: Southleigh Village Fayre, Beer Emergency Services Day. These are a great opportunity for us to get out and about, speak with residents, and provide reassurance in areas where people may not regularly see police officers.
    We have monitored cross border activities through working with our counter parts in Dorset in relation to ASB and suspect identification.
    Patrolled known drug line border connections through monitoring known vehicles coming and going from our local area.
    On going we will continue to arrange further patrols and engagement events over the coming months. If you see us while we are out and about, please come over and say hello. If there are any areas of concern that you would like us to visit, please get in touch with us through Community Messaging.
