Bamford — Neighbourhood Policing Team

Retail crime prevention & reduction

Your local neighbourhood team will be in and around the area to target the anti-social behaviour. We will continue to remain visible in the area and work with partners to tackle this. We take positive action against shoplifting offenders who area identified, this usually results in them being arrested and charged with these offences.

Our priorities are: - To reduce and detect burglary offences. - To deal with anti-social behaviour. - To target speeding and inconsiderate motorists

Your local officers assist with CCTV enquiries, high visibility patrols, crime prevention surgeries, targeting of offenders, intelligence gathering and reassurance visits to vulnerable victims of Burglary crimes. Your Neighbourhood Staff carry out regular patrol of ASB hot spot areas in the Bamford Area and use different tactics to deal with offenders. Officers complete a number of traffic operations to reduce speeding and inconsiderate motorists. We carry out regular off road bike operations in the Moorland and surrounding areas of Rochdale North as this is regularly brought up as a priority form out communities.
