Local Priorities
We recognise the concerns raised by residents, businesses, and visitors about violent crime within the Colchester district, including our town centre, surrounding neighbourhoods, and rural communities.
Issued: 1 Apr 2026
Status Update
In the city centre, we will increase patrols and engage more with the community to make our presence felt. This helps reassure the public and acts as a deterrent to crime. We will also support the enforcement of the Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) - a legal order that helps stop behaviour that negatively affects public spaces, such as street drinking or drug use.
We will use our media channels to share updates on our work and highlight our successes.
We remain committed to community engagement and education. We will also continue to use restorative justice, which brings together those involved in crime or anti-social behaviour to talk about the harm caused and agree on steps to repair it—helping to reduce tensions and build stronger community relationships.
