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.

Hotspot Policing is in place daily and officers are carrying out high visibility foot patrols in Hotspot locations with a focus on Anti-Social Behaviour.
We are working closely with the ASB officers around Anti-social behaviour escalation and ensuring support is in place where needed.
Over the past 3 months we have carried out several shoplifting operations in the sector and issued numerous CBO's to prolific offenders to try and curb the offending behaviour.
We will continue to be highly visible in the community and focus on those who repeatedly commit crime and cause the community harm. -
Priority:
Dangerous Drugs Networks including Organised Crime and Exploitation
Action taken:
We continue to conduct drugs warrants in the locality to disrupt and persue those dealing drugs. We conducted a warrant in Camborne where £85,000 worth of class A drugs were seized and the 19 year old offender was given a custodial prison sentence.
We also conducted a further drugs warrant where £9,000 street value of class A drugs were located and again the offender received a custodial prison sentence.
We will continue to focus on Dangerous Drugs Networks that cause the highest harm to those impacted. -
Priority:
Vulnerability Reduction - including safeguarding repeat victims and vulnerable persons and tackling violence against women and girls
Action taken:
We have launched 'walk and talk' in the area which is an initiative where females can pair up with a female officer to show them where in the locality they do not feel safe. We will then work with partners to try and make this better.
We also continue to work closely with partners to ensure that we are not only pursuing criminals but looking at where we can prevent crime from happening.
