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.

Burglary
Action taken:
When it comes to tackling burglary, there is more that we can do to protect our homes against the threat of a break in. PCSO Les Bradfield runs his regular burglary road show around the Datchet and Wraysbury area for anybody to attend and pick up some very helpful advice specifying the simple things that every home owner can do to protect themselves and their homes. The team have also been out to hotspot areas, changed and updated Police Operation in Progress signs, followed up with victims of crime.
