Chief Superintendent Mark Chatterton (left) is the Commander in charge of policing in North and East Hampshire. His deputy is Superintendent Dave Powell (pic to come) . 

The police in the North and East of Hampshire are committed to making this area the safest place to live and work in the county.   

The North and East Operational Command Unit (OCU) covers an area of 500 square miles serving a population of approximately half a million residents across the four district council areas of Rushmoor, Hart, Basingstoke and East Hampshire.

We have very strong partnership arrangements across all districts through the Community Safety Partnerships and Local Strategic Partnerships.

In addition, we have very positive activity with partners working on the Persistent and Priority Offender’s scheme and Public Protection Teams. The former team are focused on reducing the offending of the most active of criminals in the neighbourhood, whilst the latter proactively police the most dangerous of offenders, thereby protecting the most vulnerable people in our community. 

We deliver response policing from four sites and deliver Safer Neighbourhoods policing through the 54 neighbourhoods across the OCU. These seek to deal with the local priorities of residents by working in partnership with local councillors and agencies.

The OCU has seen some sharp reductions in crime in the last couple of years with 9,095 fewer victims of crime than in 2006/7. We have also seen specific reductions in criminal damage, vehicle crime, anti-social behaviour and violence.

We will continue with our efforts to keep our communities safer and support the force's objectives of:

  • Providing an excellent service
  • Catching criminals
  • Being active in every neighbourhood

The OCU headquarters is based at:

Aldershot Police Station
Wellington Avenue
Aldershot

Enquiry office open: 8am until 10pm from now until New Year (except Christmas Day when the office will be closed.)
