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 with a wide range of Anti-Social behaviour (ASB) concerns across the community. In the Missendens, this can include issues such as ongoing noise disturbances, neighbour disputes, reports of cannabis use or smells, littering, criminal damage, harassment, and incidents involving hate‑related behaviour. Regardless of the nature of the concern, our officers aim to engage with all parties involved, understand the circumstances, and work towards a positive and proportionate resolution.

    A large proportion of reported incidents are categorised as personal Anti-Social behaviour, often involving disputes between individuals or neighbours that can escalate over time. In these cases, the Neighbourhood Team frequently takes the lead, working closely with those affected to manage risk, provide advice, and, where appropriate, utilise formal interventions or partner agency support to bring about longer‑term solutions.

    Where Anti-Social behaviour crosses the threshold into criminality, neighbourhood officers are allocated to carry out full investigations. Some matters can be resolved quickly through early intervention, words of advice, or low‑level enforcement. However, other cases are more complex and require sustained engagement, evidence gathering, and partnership working.

    Officers from the Neighbourhood Team carry out regular patrols in the Wrights Lane and Hazel Road areas of Prestwood in response to ongoing reports of anti‑social behaviour. Many of the reported incidents relate to neighbour‑related disputes, with crimes being recorded between neighbouring parties, and the team continues to work proactively to address and resolve these issues

    The team remains committed to seeing these matters through and ensuring that victims feel supported throughout the process.

    Where individuals responsible for ongoing Anti-Social behaviour are identified, officers will take firm, fair and proportionate action. This may include the use of warning letters, acceptable behaviour agreements, or more robust enforcement powers where necessary. Our focus remains on preventing further incidents, protecting those affected, and maintaining a safe environment for everyone in the community.

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

    Actioned 23 June 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 regularly informed by residents that speeding is often linked to anti‑social driving, including excessive noise from vehicles and reckless driving, particularly during late‑night hours in Chesham and the Missendens. These incidents can have a significant impact on local communities. Where clear evidence exists, including video footage and vehicle registration details, officers can issue Section 59 warnings, enabling further action if the behaviour continues. We encourage residents to report such incidents directly to police rather than solely sharing them on social media.

    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.

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