Your local neighbourhood policing team
Your Local Bobby is the neighbourhood policing officer dedicated to your area.
They will identify threat, harm and risk to tackle local issues and protect the community. They will investigate local crimes and collect intelligence, working closely with partner agencies to identify the best problem-solving approach. They are supported by Neighbourhood Policing Teams, Neighbourhood Enforcement Teams, District Police Teams (response officers), Missing Locate Teams, Priority Crime Teams, local investigation teams and specialist functions investigating serious violence, child abuse and organised crime.
Expect your Local Bobby to be highly visible in the community, listening to your concerns and addressing root causes of crime. While your Local Bobby is your local community contact, you can also contact your local Neighbourhood Policing Team using the ‘Contact Us’ option found in the tab above. Should you need an immediate police response or wish to report a crime always contact us either online (www.hampshire.police.uk), via 101 or 999 if an emergency.

Priority:
SPEEDING
Action taken:
DISTRICT WIDE SPEEDING You will have seen lots of updates from my teams as we keep popping up and delivering speed check operations in various towns and villages across the district. Please do keep flagging up to the team any locations you feel could do with speed enforcement and we will keep doing the same. Of note I would like to highlight that last month you will have seen an update from our Priority crime Team after we ran an operation targeting traffic issues in the Bordon area, and this coming weekend you will see increased activity in the Alton area with our colleagues from the Roads Policing team.

Priority:
DRUGS
Action taken:
BORDON - DISRUPTING DRUGS SUPPLY We have seen a small increase in stop checks, drug related crime and drug offences in the Bordon area and want to get on top of this as quickly as possible. In the past month we have conducted several search warrants at addresses in the Bordon area and once we are in a position to update you on those investigations we will do so.
ALTON - DISRUPTING DRUG SUPPLY IN THE AREA Much like Bordon we will continue to disrupt anyone trying to supply drugs in the Alton area. Again there have been several updates on this site which I wont repeat, but I will add we have seen a group of younger people dealing in the Alton area of late and we are already targeting those suspects. -
Priority:
ASB
Action taken:
ASB/PUBLIC ORDER IN THE TOWN CENTRE I previously mentioned that we had added this location as we were aware there had been a bit of an increase in lower level criminality in the Petersfield area. Whilst it is only one month, I am pleased to report that September did have less calls than August, but is up on last year’s month. We are continuing to track the problem and are committed to tackling the root causes. Our colleagues from East Hampshire District Council were also on the call and will be looking at this problem with us.
