Greater Hinckley — Neighbourhood Policing Team

Local policing team in the Leicestershire Police area: contact routes, current priorities and public events.

All Leicestershire Police neighbourhoods

The Greater Hinckley neighbourhood beat covers all parts of Hinckley except for the town centre. The beat is a large residential area which also includes several schools, a college and three supermarkets. It also has a number of large industrial estates. There is a 'community house' established on the Wykin estate which is regularly attended by the beat officers and acts as a focal point for members of the community to raise issues affecting their neighbourhood.

Contact the team

In an emergency always call 999. For non-emergencies call 101 or use Leicestershire Police's online reporting.
