Local Priorities

Using a combination of your feedback and our own data, our current priority is Operation Focus patrols in areas identified for anti-social behaviour and serious violence.

Issued: 15 Feb 2026

Status Update

To address this priority, we have:

- Increased high visibility foot patrols across city centre hotspots on a weekly basis
- Provided increased, dedicated response at peak times such as Saturday afternoons/evenings around the Haymarket and surrounding footprint.
- Worked alongside partners to engage with young people in the city centre and provide safeguarding in that space.
- Engaged with schools and parents around increasing awareness of anti-social behaviour and risks linked to children in the city centre.
- Worked alongside council partners to explore crime prevention and detection opportunities such as increased CCTV coverage in hotspots.
- Impact days provided by Safer Neighbourhood Teams alongside new student officers targeting retail crime and wanted persons, particularly in the highest areas of retail crime such as Riverside and Dereham Road.
- The trial of live facial recognition in the city centre areas of highest footfall.
- Ongoing work around obtaining Criminal Behaviour Orders to better manage the city’s repeat anti-social behaviour offenders – currently there are 41 of these orders in place in the Norwich East area.

We encourage you to report any anti-social behaviour by reporting on the Norfolk Police website.
