SNT officers have completed further referrals to partner agencies through Project Adder and officers will be increasing patrols in Addiscombe High Street and surrounding roads to deter drug activity

The issue of shoplifting has had an impact on not only local businesses, but also residents and school children. A number of shoplifters have also been linked to drug use and ASB issues on the ward

SNT officers have worked hard to identify shoplifters who are prolific offenders. This has led to two arrests and these two individuals have been recalled to prison. Two further persons have also been identified and arrest enquiries are ongoing
