Clifton — Neighbourhood Policing Team

City South Priorities - April - July Inclusive City South Priorities Through analysis of crime, consultation with partners in our Multi agency Problem Solving meeting, the PCC crime survey and feedback from our community. we have identified the following policing priorities for the next three months. These priorities do not replace those local priorities raised at community meetings. The priorities are reviewed monthly and reviewed quarterly. The City South areas have such different demographics each area has its own issues and problems therefore in order to capture all the elements raised the priorities are deliberately non-specific to ensure they remain relevant to all. Acquisitive Crime Acquisitive Crime to include burglary, robbery, Vehicle crime and retail crime is on the increase and therefore need to make it a priority for the next three months Carry on identifying serial offenders, whilst focusing on repeat offenders and hot spot areas as early as possible to ensure we maximize opportunities of prosecutions, which ultimately leads to victims getting positive resolutions. Antisocial Behaviour Having consulted with counsellors and key individuals in your communities, I have identified that a number of significant issues are taking place in your areas, that comes under the heading of antisocial Behaviour. You have told us that antisocial driving and speeding is a concern, specifically car cruising is effecting you feeling safe in your community Given the broad nature of this heading it gives me and my team the opportunity to focus our efforts on particular areas in each of your communities and is why ASB will be a priority for the wards of City South for the next three months. Drugs & Drug Dealing Drugs continue to be a priority as it is intrinsically linked with many other crimes and taking a strong approach to drugs impacts on other areas. The City South will carry on targeting drug offenders in the bid to hopefully send out a message that this kind of activity will not be tolerated. Our neighbourhood teams have been consistent in our approach of taking positive action relating to intelligence received and acting on information that comes from within our communities. We have continued to execute numerous drug warrants across the area and have recovered significant quantities of drugs from circulation in our communities. Arrests have been made investigations are ongoing to ensure the appropriate action is taking by working with our partners in The City council by looking at appropriate closure orders and other punitive sanctions We have targeted vehicles used by those involved in the distribution of drugs to make it difficult to engage in this activity on the City South area. Our three priorities are there to ensure you feel and are safe why being in our area, we will continue to fight crime and listen to you and understand what is needed with you to make sure that you feel safe and improve your confidence in our ability to deal with your concerns, providing an excellent service, which we deliver with pride compassion and integrity.

City South Neighbourhood Policing Community Update – July 2026 Policing is, at its heart, about public service. It is about people — listening to concerns, understanding what matters most to our communities, and working tirelessly to deliver safer neighbourhoods. I am incredibly proud to lead teams across City South who are committed not only to reducing crime, but to building trust and confidence in policing. We recognise that trust is earned through our actions: by listening, by being visible, and by delivering meaningful outcomes for victims. Listening to the public is central to everything we do. Your concerns, your experiences, and your expectations shape our priorities. By working together, we are creating safer neighbourhoods and stronger relationships built on trust, openness, and action. Over the last month, your City South Neighbourhood Policing Team has continued to focus on the issues that matter most to local residents: tackling acquisitive crime, reducing anti-social behaviour (ASB), and disrupting drug-related activity. Alongside this, officers have been carrying out community engagement, problem-solving initiatives and targeted patrols across our neighbourhoods.
