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:

    Anti-social Behaviour including the use of vapes additional substances, Road safety (E Bikes) Business crime.

    Issued 01 July 2026

    Action taken:

    We work to reduce youth antisocial behaviour at key locations in the town centre and this has included setting up a working group of key partners.

    As the use of vapes with additional substances is a contributing factor to antisocial behaviour, numerous warrants and enforcement visits with partners have taken place in an attempt to disrupt the sale of these vapes.

    We target roads identified by the community as being a concern to them. We also engage with local schools, and have carried out a number of e-bike operations.
