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.

Priority:
ASB - Aggressive begging on Farnham Road
Action taken:
A recent review of local incidents and officer observations indicates a developing trend of aggressive begging along Farnham Road. This behaviour is characterised by persistent requests for money, close proximity to passers-by, and, in some instances, verbal intimidation when requests are refused. The activity appears concentrated around high footfall areas and peak travel times, increasing the risk of public alarm and undermining community confidence. Continued monitoring, engagement with partner agencies, and proportionate enforcement options should be considered to address antisocial behaviour and safeguard the public while identifying any associated vulnerability or safeguarding needs.
