Current priorities
Drug taking and associated anti-social behaviour (ASB) in and around Beauclere House, between Devonshire Road and Brighton Road.
Continue regular high-visibility patrols in and around Beauclere House, focusing on identified hotspot locations and peak times to provide reassurance and deter offending. Conduct targeted patrols to identify individuals involved in drug use, drug supply and associated anti-social behaviour, taking positive action where appropriate. Engage with residents, building management and local businesses to gather intelligence, encourage reporting and provide reassurance regarding police activity in the area. Utilise stop and search powers where lawful, proportionate and supported by intelligence to disrupt drug-related activity and identify offenders. Conduct environmental assessments to identify factors contributing to offending, such as poor lighting, secluded areas, access issues or areas facilitating loitering, and liaise with the Council and relevant partner agencies to implement improvements. Use MetEngage to provide updates on police activity and outcomes, encourage community engagement, and give residents an opportunity to raise concerns and provide information relating to ongoing issues in the area.
