About us

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:

    Fishburn has a large area of rural ground and farmland often home high value agricultural machinery and vehicles as well as the land yielding valuable crops. Officers are working with local farmers as well as landowners in completing extra patrols including throughout the night, to tackle rural crime under Operation Rurali. Stamping out rural crime and cross border criminality is high on our priorities. Our rural SPOC PCSO 30141 is on the Farmwatch group and keeping in touch with local farmers.

    Issued 05 November 2026

    Action taken:

    Officers have completed extra high visibility patrols across the area. Officers have also been completing operations in the area to deter Rural crime. If you're a local farmer and want to get involved contact Sophie to find out more.

    Sedgefield Neighborhood Policing Team have completed an operation in December to combat rural crime. PCSO 30141 has attended a rural watch meeting.

    Actioned 05 November 2026

  • Priority:

    Residential burglaries have a huge impact on victims, far greater than the value of any damage or stolen items. Therefore we aim to prevent burglaries before they happen, by increasing security measures.

    Issued 05 November 2026

    Action taken:

    As the dark nights are well and truly here, we have invested in a fresh supply of safer homes equipment. Throughout the winter months, any homes identified as being vulnerable to break-ins, can be issued with this equipment free of charge.

    In the last 24 months, theft offences in Fishburn have decreased by over 47%.

    Actioned 05 November 2026

  • Priority:

    Youth related ASB has been identified by both officers and residents as one of the most persistent issues in Fishburn. We don't want to be the fun police, but when behaviour crosses the line, we will step in.

    Issued 05 November 2026

    Action taken:

    When someone has been identified as being involved in ASB, they are often referred to the ASB team at the council, or dealt with as a suspect if a criminal investigation is appropriate. As neighbourhood officers, we get to know these youths well, meaning we check in regularly and identify potential issues or support needs, before its too late.
    We also link in with partner agencies, including landlords to further prevent possible ASB hotspots.
    This year so far we have had 28 reports of ASB in Fishburn, yet feel that some issues are still under-reported. We encourage residents to speak to us about issues you face.
