Tamworth Town — Neighbourhood Policing Team
Local policing team in the Staffordshire Police area: contact routes, current priorities and public events.
Tamworth’s historic town centre has seen many changes over the years - but many of its fine old buildings remain. Today, it is a vibrant and lively shopping area with most well-known stores doing business in its pedestrianised centre. Tamworth Castle overlooks the town and is a landmark with a long and distinguished history. Tamworth has some fine open spaces and is home to the unusual but very popular Snowdome where skiers can test their slalom skills on a piste of real snow.

Current priorities
Tackling anti-social behaviour (ASB).
Local officers are tackling anti-social behaviour by adopting a problem-solving approach to vulnerable locations in the town centre. Our approach includes working in collaboration with a range of partners to get to the root of problems and solve them for the long-term. This includes problems as identified from feedback from the community, relating to illegal motorcycles, drugs, and town centre violence.
