Your local team
As your local neighbourhood police team, we work together with the community, local authority, and other partners to help keep you safe.
Our team is made up of police officers and dedicated Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs). This includes a sergeant, dedicated local named officers, and Local Action Team officers. We are also supported by police teams, including response and investigation units, as well as other specialist colleagues, to help solve the crimes and problems that really matter to you.
Through our understanding of the calls we receive and our local community meetings, we agree with partners, community leaders, and residents on the key priorities for us to focus on in your area. Working in partnership, we aim to find long-term solutions to local problems while maintaining a wider focus on preventing crime and making communities safer.
