Local Policing Team
Our Neighbourhood Policing Teams consist of Neighbourhood Team Leaders (police sergeants), Neighbourhood Beat Managers (police officers) and police community support officers (PCSOs) who are accountable to their local community. A key element of the role is to undertake community engagement to understand community concerns and update them on police activity in order to build confidence.
They will work in partnership with teams both within the police (for example alcohol licensing and youth intervention) and externally (local authorities, Environmental Health and registered social landlords) to problem solve community issues. The underlying principle of our neighbourhood policing model is to intervene at the earliest possible opportunity to prevent an escalation of crime and harm.

Anti-Social Behaviour -
With the weather continuing to improve as we had into summer, we are aware of the likelihood of anti-social behaviour. We aim to carry out foot patrols of the affected areas and engage and enforce where necessary. If you are experiencing ASB in your area, please do report it to us via 101, the Kingsbridge Front Office or our email address [email protected].Action taken:

Priority:
Increased foot patrol
We are often asked by the public to be out and about on foot more: this is a clear aim over the Summer for us: it helps to drive down poor behaviour, helps the communities we police engage with us better and reassures the public.Action taken:
