Neighbourhood policing is about keeping our neighbourhoods safe. It’s about knowing your neighbourhood and understanding the things that matter to you. We want our neighbourhoods to have the confidence that we will keep you safe.
Neighbourhood Policing Teams have police officers, police community support officers, and special constables. They work to prevent crime, deter criminals and make sure those intent on causing our neighbourhoods harm are stopped.
Your Neighbourhood Policing Team will work with local organisations, authorities, and neighbourhood leaders. They will listen to neighbourhood concerns and find solutions to resolve problems.
