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.

    22/04/26: Vehicle crime , particularly theft from motor vehicle , remains a priority for us. Recent arrests have had a positive impact, but our work to tackle vehicle crime continues.

    We encourage all members of the public to :
    -Lock vehicles every time they are left, even for short periods.
    -Remove valuables from view
    -Report any suspicious behaviour or activity in their area as soon as possible.
