Denham and Gerrards Cross — Neighbourhood Policing Team
Local policing team in the Thames Valley Police area: contact routes, current priorities and public events.
Every neighbourhood in Thames Valley has a dedicated Neighbourhood Policing team. Neighbourhood Policing teams can be contacted via 101, the Thames Valley Police non-emergency number. Always call 999 in an emergency. Neighbourhood Policing teams… Are led by senior police officers and include police community support officers (PCSOs), often together with volunteer police officers, volunteers and partners. May serve one or several neighbourhoods. Work with local people and partners to identify, tackle and prevent local, low-level crime, anti-social behaviour, and any ongoing concerns. Provide you with a visible, accessible and accountable police service and aim to make your neighbourhood safer. Have been present in every Thames Valley neighbourhood since 1 April 2008. Focus all of their efforts on their dedicated neighbourhoods, building relationships with local people. Neighbourhood Policing… Needs you to tell us about the issues that concern you in your area. Has transformed policing at a local level, to meet the needs of local communities. Is known as ‘Safer Neighbourhoods’ in Milton Keynes. From the start of 2010, Thames Valley Police extended its neighbourhood consultation by introducing a wider range of publicised opportunities to meet neighbourhood teams. We will provide open monthly meetings to allow the public to influence our priorities. These meetings will be branded as Have Your Say opportunities, and in many cases will be held in conjunction with partners. View Have Your Say summary and flowchart (PDF 40 Kb - opens new window) . Once local priorities have been identified, a broader ‘toolkit’ of problem-solving tactics is being made available to ensure crime and anti-social behaviour is tackled effectively. Across the Thames Valley area, there are many successful Neighbourhood Action Groups which will continue to deliver local problem solving, but the introduction of Have Your Say meetings will allow neighbourhood teams to identify more quickly those specific local priorities that need attention. Thames Valley Police views the introduction of Have Your Say meetings as a positive step in tackling issues that matter most to the public. I welcome your support and engagement in this endeavour.

Current priorities
Anti-social behaviour was voted for as priority in a recent community survey, the Denham and Gerrards Cross neighbourhood team will continue to take steps to prevent and respond to anti-social behaviour. Anti-social behaviour includes issues such as drugs, littering, noise disturbances and youth anti-social behaviour.
The neighbourhood policing team continue to tackle anti-social behaviour. Pony & trap racing continues to be an issue of considerable concern in Chalfont St Peter and Gerrards Cross. After considerable work with our partners at Buckinghamshire Council a Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) is now in place on the relevant sections of the A413 and A40. This order prohibits the behaviour in question and provides the police with additional enforcement capabilities. We have also been working with local farmers, specialist Roads Policing motorcyclists and colleagues at Hertfordshire Police to address the anti-social use of vehicles on open spaces and farm land around the Chalfonts, Denham and Iver. An operation utilising our off-road police motorcycles was held in recent weeks, was very well received locally and will likely be run again in the near future. In recent weeks we have also provided the initial response to vehicular anti-social behaviour at the motorway services at junction 2 of the M40. This has involved both cars and motorcycles and we are pleased to report that positive action has been taken against a number of individuals. At a recent car-meet one driver was stopped and issued with a warning under S59 Police Reform Act and another was reported for a number plate offence. On a separate occasion and following calls about a group of motorcycle riders performing wheelies and wheel-spins, a group of ten were stopped nearby. Five of these riders were reported for number plate offences. We would like to reassure the community that we will respond robustly to this behaviour wherever possible. If you have any information please report on 101 or online at www. thamesvalley.police.uk. Call 999 if crime in progress or you are at risk of harm.

Burglary was voted as a top priority for the residents of Denham and Gerrards cross, Bucks TVP have recently started their winter burglary campaign.
The neighbourhood policing team have been working hard over recent months to combat burglary and acquisitive crime. Last month we participated in a multi-force operation targeting criminal use of the road network. This operation saw intense proactive policing with partners across the Chalfonts, Gerrards Cross, Denham and Iver. This operation resulted in multiple arrests, stop searches, vehicle seizures and some excellent disruption. Outside of this operation the team continue to patrol the most affected areas together with our borders with neighbouring areas and forces. If you have any information please report on 101 or online at www. thamesvalley.police.uk. Call 999 if crime in progress or you are at risk of harm.
