Current priorities
Road safety issues.
PC Howard has taken action to address concerns about road safety raised by residents. During patrols and roadside checks, officers have tested drivers for alcohol and drugs where appropriate. This includes roadside breath tests and drug tests, as well as field impairment tests (checks used to assess a driver’s ability to drive safely). Where offences are identified or suspected, arrests have been made. This ongoing work focuses on identifying unsafe drivers, preventing further offences and improving safety for all road users. Residents are encouraged to continue sharing concerns through local ward surgeries or My Community Voice (an online two-way messaging service used to report issues and receive updates).

Drug dealing.
Officers are taking action to tackle drug use and its impact on the community. This includes stop and search activity (a legal power that allows officers to search people for items such as drugs), which has led to arrests, out‑of‑court outcomes and the seizure of drugs. Officers are also carrying out welfare checks to support vulnerable people affected by drug use, offering advice and linking them with partner agencies for further help. This work combines enforcement and support to reduce harm and keep the community safe.

E-scooters/e-bikes.
PC Howard has taken action to address concerns about road safety raised by residents. During patrols and roadside checks, officers have stopped drivers and carried out alcohol and drug testing where appropriate. This includes roadside breath tests and drug tests, as well as field impairment tests (checks used to assess a driver’s ability to drive safely). Where offences are identified or suspected, arrests are made. Officers are also taking action against the illegal use of e‑scooters, which are not permitted for use on public roads or pavements unless part of an approved scheme. This ongoing work focuses on identifying unsafe behaviour, preventing further offences and improving safety for all road users. Residents are encouraged to continue sharing concerns through local ward surgeries or My Community Voice (an online two-way messaging service used to report issues and receive updates).
