Current priorities
Reduce Robbery, Theft and violent offences linked to retail
High visibility patrols combined with plain clothes patrols. Utilise temporary CCTV cameras. Deal robustly with offenders when they are identified. Ensure that there is a focus on drug taking which often fuels acquisitive crime.
Set: 2026-06-24
Reduce residential ASB
Increase high visibility patrolling particularly at peak hours, improve the usage of community protection warnings and notices. Identify those who commit ASB
Set: 2026-06-24
Improve Road Safety
Increase high visibility patrols to deter offenders, ensure that target hardening visits take place within our community, especially after an offence has been committed in the area
