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:

    Antisocial behaviour - nuisance.

    Issued 14 April 2026

    Action taken:

    Regular high-visibility patrols have been carried out in identified hotspot areas to address antisocial behaviour and provide reassurance to residents. Officers are working closely with Golding Homes, carrying out joint visits and sharing information to identify problem locations and tackle behaviours that are having a negative impact on the community. This partnership approach helps raise awareness of local issues, supports early intervention and contributes to reducing antisocial behaviour across the area.

    Actioned 03 July 2026

  • Priority:

    Fly tipping.

    Issued 14 April 2026

    Action taken:

    We have worked alongside Maidstone Borough Council's Waste Crime Team to carry out joint days of action targeting fly-tipping hotspots, vehicles and suspected offenders. This partnership approach allows information to be shared more effectively, helping to identify those responsible and take appropriate action. Officers will continue to work with partner agencies to tackle fly-tipping, protect the local environment and deter future offences. Residents are encouraged to report any incidents of fly-tipping or suspicious activity to help support these efforts.

    Actioned 03 July 2026

  • Priority:

    Road safety issues.

    Issued 14 April 2026

    Action taken:

    We have worked closely with residents, parish councils and Maidstone Borough Council to identify key road safety concerns across the area. In response to reports of obstructive parking in Sandling, Maidstone Borough Council has deployed enforcement officers to carry out patrols and take action where necessary.

    Officers have also seized an untaxed vehicle on Impton Lane that had previously been clamped by the DVLA. In addition, discussions continue with Detling Parish Council to address ongoing concerns on Hockers Lane, including speeding and the use of the road by heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) and tankers. Through continued partnership working, we aim to improve road safety and address issues affecting local residents.
