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.

    Op Prosper - Clear, Hold Build, Anti-social Behaviour, Shoplifting

    Issued 01 July 2026

    Action taken:

    Operation Prosper is our partnership approach focused on drugs, violence, antisocial behaviour (ASB), thefts, and robberies in the St Matts and Fishwick wards.

    Twenty-five warrants were executed linked to Op Prosper in June 2025, resulting in 25 arrests, 23 remands, £100,000 cash recovered and in excess of £100,000 worth of class A drugs.

    We have a focus on the city centre where we work to tackle a combination of youth related ASB, adult street drinking and shoplifting.
