Violence against women and girls

The Ward Team is committed to tackling Violence Against Women and Girls and ensuring that everyone feels safe within our community. We encourage residents and local businesses to report incidents of harassment, intimidation or behaviour that makes women and girls feel unsafe. We have increased high-visibility patrols in key areas, including the High Street and other locations identified through community feedback. We work closely with partners to identify offenders, gather evidence and take robust action where offences have been committed. Our aim is to provide reassurance, support victims and deter unacceptable behaviour within our neighbourhoods

Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB), Drug Use, Illegal Mopeds and E-Bike

The Ward Team encourages the community to continue reporting incidents of Anti-Social Behaviour, including illegal drug use, nuisance riding and the unlawful use of mopeds and e-bikes. We have followed up on information provided by residents and targeted our patrols in identified hotspot locations. We have engaged with those responsible for causing concern, taken enforcement action where appropriate and worked with partner agencies to address persistent issues. Through visible patrols, stop checks and community engagement, we aim to reduce disorder, improve safety and deter those who seek to use our neighbourhoods irresponsibly.

Residential Burglary

The Ward Team encourages the community to remain vigilant and report suspicious activity that may be linked to burglary offences. We have used crime reports and intelligence to identify locations that have been targeted and have directed patrols to these areas at key times. We work closely with victims, local residents and partner agencies to identify offenders and prevent further offences. High-visibility patrols, crime prevention advice and targeted policing activity are being used to reduce burglary, protect vulnerable properties and provide reassurance to our community.
