Current priorities
We have recently seen an increase in anti-social behaviour surrounding Thirsk Leisure Centre.
Neighbourhood officers will be increasing there patrols around this area and will be working with the community safety hub and partners to try and reduce the anti-social behaviour. We have now seen a reduction in reports around this.
Set: 2026-06-07
Night Time Economy- We see an increase in Night Time Economy over the summer months due to Thirsk Races.
Extra patrols will be placed on dates when Thirsk Races will be occurring which also involve linking in with the local licence premises.
