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:

    Findings from our recent Neighbourhood Policing Priorities Survey have identified drug-related activity as a key concern among residents in Chesham and Missenden. This feedback highlights the impact that issues such as drug use, supply, and associated Anti-Social behaviour are having on the local community.

    Issued 01 June 2026

    Action taken:

    Residents have clearly expressed their expectation that police continue to prioritise action against drug-related harm, recognising its strong links to wider criminality and the negative impact it has on community safety and wellbeing. In response, the Neighbourhood Team is using this feedback to shape local policing activity, ensuring that patrols, engagement, and enforcement are focused on addressing these concerns.

    Information provided by the public regarding locations and individuals involved plays a vital role in this approach. It enables officers to plan targeted patrols, disrupt Anti-Social behaviour linked to drug misuse, and take action against those causing harm through the supply of illegal substances.

    Officers have been carrying out regular patrols in identified hotspot areas and have developed intelligence to support warrant applications. While some incidents involving drug possession can be dealt with quickly, others are more complex and require consultation with the Crown Prosecution Service. In certain cases, additional factors such as modern slavery and exploitation are also identified, requiring further investigation.

    Although not specific to the missendens, a number of warrants have been executed in Chesham and Amersham, resulting in arrests for offences including possession with intent to supply Class A and Class B drugs. These investigations are often extensive, involving the analysis of digital devices, forensic examination, and parallel financial enquiries under proceeds of crime legislation.

    The Neighbourhood Team continues to work closely with partner agencies, including housing providers, particularly where concerns relate to drug misuse within residential properties. This joint approach has led to a range of positive outcomes, including formal warnings and criminal proceedings, helping to reduce harm and improve community safety.

    If you have any information please report on 101 or online at www. thamesvalley.police.uk.

  • Priority:

    Our recent Neighbourhood Priorities Survey revealed that the majority of Missenden residents consider Anti-Social behaviour to be one of the key issues they want their local neighbourhood team to address. In response, we continue to carry out targeted activity across the area to reduce and prevent Anti-Social behaviour. This remains a standing priority for the team.

    Issued 01 June 2026

    Action taken:

    The Neighbourhood Team dedicates a significant amount of time to supporting residents and addressing a wide range of Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) concerns across the Missendens. These can include ongoing noise nuisance, neighbour disputes, reports of cannabis use or related smells, littering, criminal damage, harassment, and incidents motivated by hate. Whatever the nature of the concern, officers aim to understand the circumstances, engage with all parties involved, and work towards a fair, proportionate, and lasting resolution.

    A large proportion of reported incidents are categorised as personal ASB, often involving disputes between neighbours or individuals that have developed over time. These issues can have a significant impact on those involved and, in many cases, require a coordinated approach. The Neighbourhood Team works closely with residents, local authorities, and partner agencies to manage risk, provide advice, and identify appropriate long-term solutions.

    Where anti-social behaviour crosses the threshold into criminality, neighbourhood officers will carry out full investigations. While some incidents can be resolved through early intervention, words of advice, or low-level enforcement, others require more extensive evidence gathering, victim support, and partnership working.

    Officers continue to conduct regular patrols in the Wrights Lane and Hazel Road areas of Prestwood in response to ongoing concerns raised by residents. Many reports relate to neighbour disputes and incidents occurring between neighbouring households, and the team remains committed to working with those involved to reduce tensions and prevent further issues.

    In addition, officers are currently investigating reports of targeted anti-social behaviour directed towards a resident and their property in the Missendens area. This type of behaviour can have a significant impact on victims, and the team is committed to pursuing all available lines of enquiry while ensuring those affected receive appropriate support and safeguarding throughout the investigation.

    Where individuals responsible for persistent anti-social behaviour are identified, officers will take firm, fair, and proportionate action. This may include warning letters, Acceptable Behaviour Agreements, Community Protection Warnings, or the use of more robust enforcement powers where necessary. Our focus remains on preventing further incidents, protecting victims, and maintaining a safe environment for everyone in the community.

    Through visible patrols, community engagement, and close partnership working, the Neighbourhood Team remains committed to tackling anti-social behaviour and responding to the concerns that matter most to residents across the Missendens.

    If you have any information please report on 101 or online at www. thamesvalley.police.uk.

    Actioned 01 August 2026

  • Priority:

    Our recent Neighbourhood Policing Priorities Survey showed that speeding is the highest concern for residents in the Missendens jointly with ASB. In the Missenden area, this continues to be a priority for the neighbourhood team, and we remain focused on addressing speeding through regular patrols, engagement and targeted enforcement.

    Issued 01 June 2026

    Action taken:

    The Neighbourhood Team carries out regular speed checks and enforcement across the area using roadside speed detection equipment to deter offending and take action where necessary. Drivers found exceeding the limit may be issued with tickets, and our visible presence alone often encourages motorists to reduce their speed. While enforcement activity is less frequent during the winter months, this increases as we move into spring and summer, with dedicated enforcement days already planned.

    Tackling speeding effectively requires a joined‑up approach. Changing driver behaviour and attitudes takes time, and we work closely with partner agencies and the community to make speeding socially unacceptable. We actively support Community Speed Watch in the Chesham area, and welcome new volunteers. Anyone interested can find further information at www.communityspeedwatch.org

    We are also aware that speeding concerns are often linked to anti-social driving, including excessive vehicle noise and reckless driving, particularly during late-night hours in Chesham and the Missendens. These incidents can have a significant impact on local residents. Where clear footage and vehicle registration details are provided, officers can issue Section 59 warnings, allowing for more robust enforcement action should the behaviour continue. We encourage residents to report incidents directly to the police rather than relying solely on social media.

    Officers continue to take proactive action against a range of traffic-related offences, including uninsured driving.

    Appropriate enforcement action is taken whenever offences are identified, and the team regularly responds to reports of dangerous, careless and inconsiderate driving across the area.

    Neighbourhood officers continue to deal with a wide range of traffic‑related offences, including uninsured driving, and appropriate enforcement action is taken in all cases. The team also regularly responds to reports of unsafe or inconsiderate driving throughout the area.

    In addition, officers proactively tackle anti‑social driving. In recent months, several vehicles have been stopped due to the manner of driving, with some seized after drivers were found to be unlicensed. These actions help reduce dangerous behaviour on our roads and improve safety for all road users.
