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:

    Priority:

    Acquisitive Crime (Burglary, Robbery, Shoplifting, Theft)​

    Priority Period:

    April to June 2026


    How priorities are chosen:

    The priorities for the Gedling Neighbourhood Team are reviewed every 3 months in a Multi-Agency meeting attended by various internal departments from Nottinghamshire Police as well as partner agencies including Gedling Borough Council.

    The meeting looks at the data from crime recording and intelligence systems held by the police, as well as data from the Nottinghamshire Police Crime Commissioners Office and responses to the ‘What Matters’ survey submitted to the police via the Notts Alert system, in order to determine which matters are important to our communities.

    The priorities selected do not detract from other priorities either locally or across the force.

    Why this priority has been chosen:

    Acquisitive crime has been retained as a priority from the previous quarter due to the affect it has on our communities, whether directly or indirectly. Offences such as burglary and robbery are extremely distressing and can leave a lasting impact on victims.

    Vehicle crime has shown an upward trend over the last 12 months along with a particular recent spike at the end of 2025. Where hot spots and trends are identified, a suitable response will be actioned. This may include proactive and reactive investigations.

    As well as retail theft / shoplifting, we are seeing an increase in business robbery recording (due to a change in crime recording standards) whereby business staff are being threatened or assaulted by offenders. This is unacceptable. Nottinghamshire Police support the #ShopKind initiative from the National Business Crime Centre. It is backed by the Home Office and supported by major high street retailers as well as the nation’s independent shopkeepers, and the shopworkers union Usdaw.

    The aim of the campaign is to encourage positive behaviours in shops, acknowledge the important role of shopworkers and raise awareness about the scale and impact of violence and abuse against shopworkers.

    Our officers will look to deal robustly with any offenders who have committed acquisitive crime and will continue to utilise Criminal Behaviour Orders for the most prolific offenders. These orders can include conditions such as banning offenders from carrying bags for life, banning them from certain areas as well as positive conditions such as seeking rehabilitative treatment. Breach of a Criminal Behaviour Order is an arrestable offence and will see the offender put back before the Magistrates Court.

    How you can have your voice heard:

    You can take part in the “What Matters” survey via the Notts Alerts website - www.nottsalerts.co.uk

    You can report incidents by calling 999 or 101 as well as via our website.

    You can also provide intelligence anonymously via Crimestoppers.

    Issued 01 April 2026

    Action taken:

    Summary:

    In relation to acquisitive crime, we continue systematically targeting those repeat offenders who cause the most harm, ensuring they are quickly brought to justice and seeking additional orders (such as Criminal Behaviour Orders) to reduce the risk of their offending.

    We also liaise with partner agencies and businesses to look at all available options to deal with offenders and assist with target hardening and problem solving.

    Specifically for retail crime, we want to emphasise collaboration with retailers and encourage businesses to report shoplifting incidents through streamlined mechanisms (such as via SingleOnlineHome and being able to send CCTV over an online link etc.) which also assists is with a better understanding of crime trends to be able to adequately target repeat offenders, prolific offenders, hotspot locations etc.

    April Update:

    Analysis of the last 12 months of shop theft offences across Gedling South under Operation Descent 1 shows a 34% reduction at the top five targeted locations. This reflects the clear impact of intelligence‑led, targeted patrols. The top locations have now been refreshed, and patrol plans are in progress under Operation Descent 2.

    In Gedling Central (covering the Arnold, Daybrook and Bonington beat areas), Operation Shifted has now launched. The top five priority locations and repeat offenders have been identified, and proactive work is already underway to address these issues.

    We have recently introduced Business Action Group's (BAG's) across Gedling. These groups bring together local businesses and policing teams to strengthen problem‑solving partnerships, prevent crime, and ensure offenders are brought to justice swiftly.

    Whilst there has been an increase in many areas of offending during April, there have been some notable arrests and prosecutions which should assist with reductions in the coming months.

    The overall offences across Gedling remain low, therefore statistical changes appear more pronounced.

    Recorded acquisitive crime changes (April):
    • Overall theft offences: up 31% (+ 49 offences).
    • Bicycle theft: no change (3 offences in total).
    • Burglary: up 28% (+ 4 offences).
    • Shoplifting: up 12% (+ 10 offences).
    • Theft from the person: Up 133% (+ 4 offences)
    • Vehicle crime: up 19% (+ 5 offence)
    • Robbery: down 9% (- 1 offence)

    May Update:

    As documented previously, whilst overall shop theft statistics vary over time, our structured approach to the regularly reviewing the top 5 shop lifting locations is seeing significant reductions in those repeat stores. The quarterly review allows for any displacement to be quickly addressed.

    The Business Action Groups continue to be used to address business crime across Gedling.

    Whilst there has been an increase in many areas of offending during recent months, significant proactive work is being completed to target those responsible.

    The overall offences across Gedling remain low, therefore statistical changes appear more pronounced.

    Recorded acquisitive crime changes (May):
    • Overall theft offences: up 5.8% (+ 11 offences).
    • Bicycle theft: no change (3 offences in total).
    • Burglary: up 50% (+ 8 offences).
    • Shoplifting: up 11.5% (+ 10 offences).
    • Theft from the person: Down 80% (- 4 offences)
    • Vehicle crime: up 10% (+ 3 offence)
    • Robbery: no change (7 offences in total)

    Actioned 01 June 2026

  • Priority:

    Priority:

    Anti Social Behaviour (including behavioural, motorcycle, speeding, begging)​

    Priority Period:

    April to June 2026


    How priorities are chosen:

    The priorities for the Gedling Neighbourhood Team are reviewed every 3 months in a Multi-Agency meeting attended by various internal departments from Nottinghamshire Police as well as partner agencies including Gedling Borough Council.

    The meeting looks at the data from crime recording and intelligence systems held by the police, as well as data from the Nottinghamshire Police Crime Commissioners Office and responses to the ‘What Matters’ survey submitted to the police via the Notts Alert system, in order to determine which matters are important to our communities.

    The priorities selected do not detract from other priorities either locally or across the force.

    Why this priority has been chosen:

    This priority has been retained from the previous quarter. Whilst good progress has been made over recent months, there is more to be achieved to improve the quality of life for local residents and visitors who may be affected by this type of behaviour. With spring on the horizon we hope to set a positive tone moving into the brighter months so that the area can be enjoyed by residents and visitors.

    Partner led engagement and diversion work has commenced within Gedling following recent funding through the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner and the local NPT will continue to support this holistic approach.

    The Police will continue to identify repeat offenders of ASB and ensuring that they are dealt with robustly, in collaboration with Gedling Borough Council, various housing associations, and, if relevant, social care and the courts.

    How you can have your voice heard:

    You can take part in the “What Matters” survey via the Notts Alerts website - www.nottsalerts.co.uk

    You can report incidents by calling 999 or 101 as well as via our website.

    You can also provide intelligence anonymously via Crimestoppers.

    Associated anti social behaviour (such as noise nuisance, neighbour disputes, fly tipping, etc) can be reported to Gedling Borough Council, details of which are available on their website.

    Issued 01 April 2026

    Action taken:

    Summary:

    In relation to anti-social behaviour, we continue to work with various partners to identify hot spots and tailor our approach to prevent incidents and deal positively with those who commit offences.

    Civil tools are utilised to deal with persistent offenders including the use of Acceptable Behaviour Contracts and other measures available. A multi-agency approach is taken so that holistic support is provided to communities, ensuring that engagement and diversion is on offer and where ASB does occur, a joined up approach leads to successful outcomes.

    April Update:

    The Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) continues to implement targeted activity to reduce anti‑social behaviour (ASB) across Gedling.

    Vehicle‑related nuisance remains a key focus and is being addressed through a joint approach with Gedling Borough Council, utilising the Public Space Protection Order (PSPO). Encouragingly, reported incidents involving vehicle nuisance have reduced significantly. Members of the public are reminded to report concerns via 101 so that resources can be deployed effectively.

    Days of action continue to deliver positive results. The Off‑Road Bike Team is regularly deployed across Gedling to target motorcycle‑related nuisance, with good effect.

    Whilst recorded ASB has seen an increase in April, this is in line with general patterns in previous years. The continued trend remains downwards with a reduction of over 11% on a rolling 12‑month basis, demonstrating sustained progress and the positive impact of partnership‑led activity.

    Looking ahead, the NPT will continue working closely with partners, including the local authority, youth outreach providers, and local schools, to reduce ASB further as we move towards the summer months.

    May Update:

    Problem solving initiatives, including partnership liaison continues to address long term ASB. This includes diversionary work and addressing some of the root causes.

    Relevant civil powers continue to be used including the issuing of significant numbers of Acceptable Behaviour Contracts (ABC's) for young people involved in low level ASB. Parents and the Youth Justice Service are engaged with to support this as a preventative method.

    A recent closure order was issued for a problematic address linked to repeat ASB in Arnold, and others remain under consideration where appropriate.

    Recorded ASB has seen a gradual increase over recent months which is expected with the improved weather. This is also following significant reductions since August 2025, above those seen in previous years. The long term trend remains a downward trajectory of offending.

    Actioned 01 June 2026

  • Priority:

    Priority:

    Drugs (Possession, Possession with intent to supply, cultivation of cannabis)

    Priority Period:

    April to June 2026


    How priorities are chosen:

    The priorities for the Gedling Neighbourhood Team are reviewed every 3 months in a Multi-Agency meeting attended by various internal departments from Nottinghamshire Police as well as partner agencies including Gedling Borough Council.

    The meeting looks at the data from crime recording and intelligence systems held by the police, as well as data from the Nottinghamshire Police Crime Commissioners Office and responses to the ‘What Matters’ survey submitted to the police via the Notts Alert system, in order to determine which matters are important to our communities.

    The priorities selected do not detract from other priorities either locally or across the force.

    Why this priority has been chosen:

    Feedback from the local community and partners suggests that drug crime continues to affect their quality of life across Gedling.

    Drug use and supply is often is driven through organised crime and can lead to serious violence. It also impacts on other offences including acquisitive crime which can be used to fund addiction. Drug taking and dealing has a detrimental effect on communities and can lead to increased anti-social behaviour.

    The NPT will be developing intelligence and taking enforcement action against those causing our communities the most harm. This will include a number of overt and covert methods to tackle offences such as stop and search, executing drugs warrants and contributing to other intelligence led operations.

    A partnership approach will ensure that that those who are dependent on drugs are provided with support and signposting to break the cycle of addiction.

    How you can have your voice heard:

    You can take part in the “What Matters” survey via the Notts Alerts website - www.nottsalerts.co.uk

    You can report incidents by calling 999 or 101 as well as via our website.

    You can also provide intelligence anonymously via Crimestoppers.

    If drug activity is taking place within a housing association property, please also contact the service provider.

    Issued 01 April 2026

    Action taken:

    Summary:

    In relation to drug offences, we work closely with partners to take a holistic approach to prevent the misuse of controlled drugs whilst using intelligence to tackle the supply and distribution at source. This includes a number of overt and covert methods including stop and search, the execution of drugs warrants and working collaboratively to support other wider operations.

    A partnership approach ensures that that those who are dependent on drugs are referred to support agencies to break the cycle of addiction.

    April Update:

    Enforcement activity continued throughout March across Gedling, with a clear focus on identifying and disrupting individuals involved in the supply of controlled drugs.

    We remain committed to working alongside partner agencies to maximise opportunities for intervention. This includes exploring the use of civil measures, such as tenancy enforcement, to support a long‑term, sustainable reduction in drug‑related crime and its impact on local communities.

    Where individuals are found to be dependent on substances, they are being referred to specialist partner agencies for support. This approach aims to reduce offending through rehabilitation and improved access to services.

    Recorded drug offences (April):
    • Drug possession: down by 50% (- 7 offences)
    • Drug supply: down by 66% (- 10 offences)

    Looking forward, our efforts will remain firmly centred on developing actionable intelligence to identify individuals causing the greatest harm through drug supply. We will continue to deliver coordinated enforcement operations and maintain close partnership working to safeguard communities and disrupt organised criminal activity.

    May Update:

    Several enforcement operations were completed throughout May across Gedling to disrupt the supply of controlled drugs.

    Where drugs possession is linked to substance dependency, supportive measures continue to be used to prevent reoffending.

    Recorded drug offences (May):
    • Drug possession: up by 57% (+ 4 offences)
    • Drug supply: down by 60% (- 3 offences)

    Over the coming months further drug enforcement operations will take place.
