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:

    North Yorkshire Police are working in partnership with British Transport Police, North Yorkshire Council, as well as other agencies to tackle the anti-social behaviour around Whitby Train station.

    November update. There continues to be issues around the station linked, in no small part due to it being a transport Hub in close proximity to the bus station. Nevertheless officers conduct daily patrols and legislation is being enforced.

    Issued 10 November 2026

    Action taken:

    North Yorkshire Police and British Transport Police are working together in order to decrease the number of reports involving anti-social behaviour around the vicinity of the train station.

    Proactive work and patrols with British Transport Police have continued throughout the summer and will continue into autumn and beyond Halloween and Bonfire Night which can mark a busy period for ASB and disorder.

    Groups of individuals have been engaged with and dispersed from the locality in recent days and the public have been advised to report any ASB through 101 and online. There are also criminal investigations ongoing due to recent reports of criminal damage.

    This will involve a number of engagements with a mutli-agency approach over the next few months to encourage those involved to deter any further anti-social behaviour or criminal activity.

    Actioned 10 November 2026

  • Priority:

    There has been a small rise in the number of rural crimes reported in the last few weeks. These have amounted to the theft of agricultural equipment including quad bikes.

    Issued 08 November 2026

    Action taken:

    As a consequence of this rise resources both local and from specialist teams have been deployed into the Whitby rural area. This will continue into the winter.
