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. We are supported by police teams based locally, such as response and investigation, as well as other specialist colleagues, to help solve the crimes and problems that really matter to you.
The team is made up of police officers and dedicated Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs).
Through our understanding of the calls we receive and our local community meetings, we agree with partners, community leaders and residents the key priorities for us to focus on in your area. Working in partnership we want to find long-term solutions to local problems, while maintaining a wider focus on preventing crime and making communities safer.
