Current priorities

We work with the community and local partners, as well as looking at our own data to come up with priorities that we will have for The Woottons for the next three months: Tackling rural crime and antisocial behaviour across west Norfolk

Across the Woottons we’ve seen an increase in antisocial vehicle use and have been working hard to crack down on this. We’ve been increasing patrols around the parks and green spaces, as well as on the cut throughs around the estates, to deter people from riding e-bikes and motorbikes illegally and antisocially. We have seen some success with this, especially during April, and reports have reduced but we would always encourage people to keep reporting any concerns or information to us.

Set: 2026-03-25

We work with the community and local partners, as well as looking at our own data to come up with the priority that we will have for The Woottons for the next three months: Tackling youth and vehicle related anti-social behaviour Tackling rural and acquisitive crime

It's already been a busy start to the summer with events and engagements across the area. We've visited schools and youth groups too. We are working on tackling the anti-social use of motorbikes across the area and continue to ask for people to report any issues to us.
