Current priorities
Serious Youth Violence / ASB
This will continue to be one of our priority and will encompass the reports of ASB that is the top concern of residents of the ward at the moment. Our aim will be to drive down ASB reports whilst trying to keep the reductions in violent crime down.
Set: 2025-11-17
Drug Dealing
Given the large increase of offences compared to last year, it being in the top 3 crimes residents are concerned about and the fact that we already have an operation focusing on trying to tackle drug importation and supply across the ward. The panel agreed that this should be a priority.
Set: 2025-11-17
Criminal Damge
The panel wanted the local team to focus on Criminal Damage for this quarter as the burglaries are typically happening overnight and the panel felt that they would want their local ward team out during times they should be seen. There is also hopefully a bit more impact that we as a Safer Neighbourhood Team can do to help reduce this crime type.
