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.

    Action taken:

    Officers have maintained a strong high-visibility presence across the ward to deter antisocial behaviour and provide reassurance to residents. Regular engagement has taken place with young people, with the majority found to be behaving responsibly.

Additional work has also been undertaken to identify and address emerging issues at an early stage, helping to prevent incidents from escalating and maintaining low levels of antisocial behaviour within the community.
