Your Local Neighbourhood Policing Team
The Sergeant is next in command and also assists the Inspector. In addition they provide leadership in the development and supervision of the Constables and PCSOs. They too work with the community and other agencies to ensure that the concerns of the community are dealt with by the Neighbourhood Team.
Police Constables work alongside the community and partner agencies to tackle crime and issues identified by the local community. They work together with PCSOs to be a visible presence in the local area and build trust and confidence by developing a detailed understanding of the community.

Crimes and priorities

Priority:
Targeted patrols continue in and around The Curve, St Ethelbert’s and Yew Tree Road Park to address alcohol-related anti-social behaviour. Displacement of street drinkers into these areas has been identified following ongoing town centre redevelopment. Officers will maintain a visible presence, using enforcement powers where appropriate, while working with Slough Borough Council and partner agencies to support longer-term solutions.
Action taken:
•Conduct high-visibility patrols in identified hotspot areas.
•Tackle alcohol-related ASB and utilise alcohol seizure powers where appropriate.
•Signpost vulnerable individuals to relevant support services.
•Work with Slough Borough Council to address ongoing issues.
•Gather evidence to support Community Protection Notices and other interventions for repeat offenders.
•Consider the use of dispersal powers where necessaryBetween 1 July and 21 August, officers seized 92 quantities of alcohol. We will continue to use available powers to seize alcohol and disrupt street drinking that has a negative impact on our communities.
-
Priority:
The Town Centre and Chalvey continue to see reports of theft from motor vehicles, with many offences involving vehicles left insecure or property left on display. Residents are encouraged to remain vigilant, report suspicious behaviour, and share any CCTV or Ring doorbell footage that may assist investigations, even if it is unclear whether an offence has occurred.
Action taken:
•Carry out proactive patrols in identified hotspot locations.
•Work with residents, businesses and partner agencies to gather intelligence and identify emerging trends.
•Promote vehicle security through crime prevention messaging and the "Clear Car" campaign.
•Monitor known offenders and utilise stop and search powers where lawful, proportionate and necessary to disrupt criminal activity.
•Encourage reporting of suspicious activity and submission of CCTV, dashcam and Ring doorbell footage to support investigations. -
Priority:
Throughout the summer, Neighbourhood Policing Teams conducted patrols around areas of open water, particularly the Jubilee River, during periods of extreme heat, promoting water safety awareness.
Action taken:
A joint engagement event with Berkshire Fire & Rescue Service was also held in Slough Town Centre. The event was well attended, with children enjoying the opportunity to learn about water safety and experience rescue equipment demonstrations.
As the weather becomes cooler and the demand for water safety patrols reduces, this will no longer feature as a patrol plan priority.
