Local Priorities

Heritage crime

Issued: 1 Jan 2026

Status Update

Heritage crime is defined as 'any offence which harms the value of Britain's heritage assets and their settings to this and future generations'.

That can include offences like lead theft from churches, damage to ancient monuments and illegal metal detecting.

We’re increasing patrols in areas affected by the issue, and engaging with the local community.

Actioned: 1 Jan 2026

Anti-social behaviour

Issued: 1 Jan 2026

Status Update

Your neighbourhood officers are committed to tackling anti-social behaviour (ASB) through engagement, collaborative working and problem solving.

Everybody has the right to feel safe in their community, and we’ll take robust action against those acting disorderly and those who have an adverse impact on the wellbeing of our towns.

The team will proactively patrol hotspot areas, providing a visible deterrent with partners.
