Get to know your local officers as we kick off Neighbourhood Policing Week

Dear Resident,

This week marks ‘Neighbourhood Policing Week’, where we highlight the great work that our neighbourhood officers do in your area.
 

To kick off the week, we wanted to share more information about what neighbourhood policing is, and how you can get involved.

What is neighbourhood policing?
East Cambridgeshire is covered by a team comprised of a sergeant, police officers, and Police Community Support Officers. 

They are dedicated to patrolling their specific areas and community engagement is at the heart of what they do. The teams focus on the issues that matter most to you, whether that be anti-social behaviour, road safety, drug use or retail crime.

From coffee mornings to nursery visits, they take the time to connect with people of all ages and listen to their views. This information is used to identify problems and take action through a range of measures, such as closure orders.

We also have a Neighbourhood Support Team, which is dedicated to dealing with:

From carrying out visits to those who may be at risk of cuckooing, to undertaking enforcement operations against county lines, they are always busy tackling your concerns, even if you don’t see it.
