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 vehicle driving

    Issued 14 July 2026

    Action taken:

    Anti-social vehicle driving:
    24% decrease in ASB in Ashford in the last 3 months, continuing to receive reports of anti-social driving in many roads in Ashford, particularly the roads surrounding Woodthorpe Road, arrests for drug driving have been made, as well as S59 notices given to vehicles involved. Further, over 15 ASB interventions given to persons involved in ASB and crime in Ashford over the last 3 months.

    Actioned 14 July 2026

  • Priority:

    Shoplifting and acquisitive crime

    Issued 24 June 2026

    Action taken:

    Multiple targeted operations, both in uniform and plain clothes, have been conducted in the Ashford area focusing specifically on tackling shoplifting. These proactive deployments are designed to identify and apprehend offenders, disrupt criminal activity, and act as a visible deterrent to prevent further offences.
    PCSOs Melson and Ashford have also carried out a “Meet the Beat” engagement on Church Road, Ashford. This provided an opportunity to offer crime prevention advice, increase reassurance, and build positive relationships with members of the local community.
    In addition, high-visibility foot patrols have been undertaken across the area, with officers engaging directly with local businesses. These interactions have helped to identify ongoing concerns, gather intelligence around patterns of offending, and inform a more targeted and effective policing approach to tackling retail crime in Ashford.

    Actioned 25 June 2026

  • Priority:

    Violence against women and girls VAWG
    From our public engagements with the community, it’s been identified that it is early hours of the morning and the hours of evening that are the most concerning, whereby inappropriate or unpleasant behaviour occurs.
    Many persons identified areas around the major transport links, such as Ashford Train Station and Sunbury Underpass.

    Issued 25 June 2026

    Action taken:

    We have responded to these concerns by increasing both high-visibility and plain-clothes patrols in identified hotspot areas, particularly during times highlighted as most problematic. We are also working closely with partner agencies, including Spelthorne Borough Council, to develop long-term solutions aimed at improving safety in these locations. Key areas identified by the team include Fordbridge Park, Clarendon Road, and surrounding roads near the train station.

    We organise regular public engagement events and meetings to raise the public’s awareness of Violence Against Women and Girls and to give everyone an opportunity to talk to us about anything of concern.

    Actioned 25 June 2026

  • Priority:

    Burglary

    Issued 25 June 2026

    Action taken:

    PCSOs have conducted targeted street the week and extensive house-to-house engagement throughout the Safer Ashford initiative. This has provided a valuable opportunity to speak directly with residents about crime prevention and practical steps they can take to better protect their homes.
    During these engagements, PCSOs distributed reassurance and prevention leaflets, offered tailored advice, and encouraged residents to report concerns. This proactive approach has not only helped raise awareness around home security but has also strengthened community relationships, giving officers a clearer understanding of the issues and priorities affecting local residents.
