Crimes and priorities

Priority:
Action taken:
-
Priority:
Anti-social behaviour (ASB)
Swiftly responding to incidents of ASB and effectively using policing powers available to intervene - including powers of dispersal where the actions of individuals or groups impact their wider surroundings; which can lead to wider harm, including the misuse of public spaces or buildings, criminal damage or vandalism, for example graffiti or damage to public buildings.
Action taken:
•Engagement events continue as an opportunity for residents to raise concerns and highlight areas of ASB direct to officer, all reports help to assist officers in their patrol locations to ensure together we are providing a police presence in areas which have seen an increase in ASB.
•Officers also continue to engage with young people to identify those at risk of becoming involved in ASB, providing early support, building positive relationships, and working with partners to divert individuals away from offending behaviour and towards more constructive activities.
-
Priority:
Drug related harm.
Responding to reports of drug related harm in your communities, from individuals and properties to help keep your town safe from drug related crime and associated ASB.
Action taken:
•Patrols of known areas of drug use, continue to address concerns of discarded drug paraphernalia reported by residents, most recently in the last week (Mid July) individuals spoken to, words of advice, and drug paraphernalia surrendered to local PCSOs following patrols in Baxters Field and surrounding area.
