Your Local Neighbourhood Policing Team
Every neighbourhood in the Thames Valley area has a dedicated neighbourhood policing team that works together with the local community and partners to: reduce crime and incidents, bring more offenders to justice, protect the vulnerable and tackle violence against women and girls and improve victim service and public confidence.
Neighbourhood policing teams are led by senior police officers and include police officers, Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs), police staff, police support volunteers and the Special Constabulary.
They aim to make communities safer through an approach that is focussed on visibility, engagement, problem solving and community resilience.
You can receive regular updates on local information and incidents in or around your area by signing up to Thames Valley Alert.
Crimes and priorities

Priority:
Car meets have been a concern for residents in Colnbrook and Poyle for some-time, however, last year reports were fewer. We believe now that car meets are still going on but are just not being reported by residents.
Action taken:
PC BOYD and PCSO DIAZ have had a meeting with the anti-social behaviour tactical advisor and are currently identifying stakeholders for future meetings in relation to the Op Chromium car meets.
Officers believe that although reports are few, the car meets are still going on. The neighbourhood team understand it is frustrating reporting the car meets on each occasion and appreciate that residents may feel the Police are not doing anything, however, the team would like to reassure the public that there are things going on behind the scenes. Officers are in contact with Slough Borough Council and Highways regarding the matter.
-
Priority:
Contravening the no through road on High Street, Colnbrook. This road is access only and vehicles are regularly using it as a cut through.
Action taken:
This issue continues to be raised by local residents. Police will carry on issuing fixed penalty notices to anyone seen breaching the restrictions. PCSO Diaz is setting up an operation on the High Street to educate drivers who ignore the no‑through‑road signs, and PC Laver is continuing enforcement by ticketing road users who contravene the signage.
-
Priority:
Youths are congregating, using stairwells, smoking drugs and causing anti-social behaviour in and around LINDEN and BYRON HOUSE, COMMON ROAD, LANGLEY.
Action taken:
The neighbourhood team have been conducting targeted patrols in January to combat this issue. PC WALLACE is looking into the logistics around getting some form of Order for the communal areas.
Update: Anti-social behaviour surveys have been completed and residents spoken to, officers have continued to patrol the area and residents have stated the issue has got slightly better. The neighbourhood team will continue to monitor and encourage residents to report.
