Warsop — Neighbourhood Policing Team

Priority 3: Drug Use and Dealing Priority Period: April – July 2026 How priorities are chosen Drug‑related harm is identified as a priority through analysis of police intelligence, crime reports, partner information, public feedback and wider public health concerns, discussed at MAPS meetings with partner agencies. Why this priority has been chosen Drug use and dealing continue to drive crime, ASB and community harm across Mansfield, particularly in the town centre and vulnerable residential areas. Reports from residents and partners, along with ongoing safeguarding and public health concerns, mean continued focus is required to disrupt supply, protect vulnerable individuals and address associated ASB. How you can have your voice heard Residents are encouraged to report concerns about drug dealing via 101 or anonymously through Crimestoppers. Information provided by the public plays a vital role in developing intelligence for warrants and enforcement activity.

June Update: Active development of warrant activity targeting suspected addresses Ongoing work disrupting and deterring organised crime groups (OCGs) from Mansfield. Op Conclusion targeting cuckooed properties and safeguarding vulnerable occupants Planning underway for Op Legacy, focusing on individuals linked to town centre drug use and associated offending Partnership working with housing, probation, treatment services and local authorities to address persistent offenders These actions are supported by continued intelligence gathering and community information to ensure we target those causing the greatest harm.

Priority 2: Retail Crime Priority Period: April – July 2026 How priorities are chosen Retail crime has been identified through regular MAPS meetings using police crime data, intelligence, feedback from retailers and partner agencies, and public concerns. These meetings allow us to focus resources on issues that cause the greatest harm to businesses and the wider community. Why this priority has been chosen Shop theft remains the highest recorded crime type across Mansfield. All of the top ten repeat offenders for overall crime in the area are shoplifters, and six of the top ten offence locations are retail premises. Although there has been a reduction in recorded shop theft, there has been a significant increase in robberies of business properties, where offenders threaten violence to steal goods. Retail crime is also strongly linked to wider ASB, drug use, organised crime and exploitation, making this an ongoing priority. How you can have your voice heard Retailers and members of the public are encouraged to report incidents promptly via 101 or our website. Businesses are also encouraged to continue working with local officers and share information to help target repeat offenders.

Summary of Action Taken: We continue to target repeat offenders through proactive operations and pursue Criminal Behaviour Orders (CBOs) to disrupt offending. We are working closely with retailers and partners to improve reporting, strengthen evidence gathering and reduce opportunities for crime. July Update: Op Amberstag ongoing within the town centre 8 Criminal Behaviour Orders (CBOs) currently in place for prolific offenders Shop theft reduced by approximately 9.78% Detection rate for shop theft: 33.9% Detection rate for robbery of business property: 45.3% Although shop theft has decreased, there has been an increase in offences involving violence or threats against business staff, highlighting ongoing risk and the need for continued focus. Retail crime remains strongly linked to the most harmful repeat offenders and hotspot locations

Priority 1: Vehicle‑Related Anti‑Social Behaviour Priority Period: April – July 2026 How priorities are chosen The priorities for the Mansfield Neighbourhood Policing Team are reviewed every three months at a Multi‑Agency Problem Solving (MAPS) meeting. These meetings bring together police and partner agencies to review police crime and incident data, intelligence, partner information and feedback from the public, including responses to the Notts Alert “What Matters” survey, to identify the issues causing the most concern and harm within the community. The priorities selected do not detract from our wider policing responsibilities locally or across Nottinghamshire. Why this priority has been chosen Vehicle‑related anti‑social behaviour remains the most frequently reported type of ASB in Mansfield. This includes issues such as off‑road bikes, e‑scooters, speeding vehicles, car meets, and vehicle nuisance around schools, the night‑time economy and public open spaces. Ongoing reports from residents, continued damage to land and wildlife, and the impact on public confidence mean this continues to be a significant concern. Retaining this as a priority allows officers dedicated time to focus on hotspot areas and persistent offenders. How you can have your voice heard You can share your concerns and help shape local policing by completing the Notts Alert “What Matters” survey. Incidents can be reported by calling 999 in an emergency, 101 for non‑emergencies, or via our website. Information can also be shared anonymously with Crimestoppers.

June Update: Op Nebraska continues as the Problem Management Plan targeting off-road bikes Successful enforcement activity including vehicle seizures and Section 59 warnings issued Speed enforcement carried out, with multiple offences detected on Chatsworth Drive Additional driver training being progressed to allow further operational deployment We continue to balance risk and legal thresholds when dealing with off-road bikes but remain committed to using all available tactics, including identification through submitted footage and intelligence.
