Current priorities
1 - Cross-border operations 2 - Pro-active serious violence prevention 3 - Public space anti-social behaviour
1 - Focussed operations working with bordering forces including Nottinghamshire using intelligence and targeted policing. Designed to proactively identify and tackle individuals and vehicles committing drug related offences on Derbyshire. 2 - Close working with schools and partners, the Youth Engagement Team will work to educate and deter young people from incidents with a threat of weapons use. Alongside this will be an increase in proactive patrols and the use of stop searches in open areas. 3 - Work to tackle an increase in nuisance behaviour reported as a result of warmer weather and sporting events. Officers will target key public spaces and hotspot areas with additional hi-vis patrols to deter ASB. Along with partners, officers will work to identify individuals involved and use the appropriate enforcement tools.
