Your neighbourhood policing team
The Neighbourhood Inspector has overall responsibility for the entire neighbourhood policing team of Sergeants, Police Constables, PCSOs and police staff. They are responsible for delivering on neighbourhood policing strategies, directing the deployment of the team and developing relationships with partners and key stakeholders, to enable the neighbourhood policing team to work effectively.
The Neighbourhood Sergeant provides frontline leadership to coordinate neighbourhood team activity, and works with the community, partners and other colleagues to deliver safer neighbourhoods. This includes directing problem solving and engagement activity, and being responsive to community needs.

Police Constables work in the community to tackle local issues and crimes. They provide a visible, accessible and approachable uniformed presence in the community, and are responsive to local needs. They take a problem solving approach to issues, work with partners, focus on engagement and target their activity where it is needed most.
PCSOs provide a visible, accessible and approachable uniformed presence in the community, using designated powers where needed, deterring and preventing crime, and tackling antisocial behaviour. They are problem solvers and work with partners, where needed, to address local issues.
