There has been an increase in theft and anti-social behaviour in the Worsley Mesnes area.
Officers will be focussing on the shops and working with them in regard to crime prevention and supporting investigations to bring the persons responsible to justice.

Off road bikes being a big issue on the open lands will be targeted by operation Hurricane and riders of these facing prosecution.

The most recent Partners and Communities Together (PACT) meeting took place at Norley Hall Adventure Playground on the 2nd April 2026.

At this meeting discissions and consultation was had with yourselves ‘The Public’ and your locally elected officials. As a result of which, our main priority was identified as making you feel safe within the communities in which you live, by tackling four key issues within the Worsley Mesnes ward…

-Knife Crime
-Business Crime (Shoplifting).
-Drug use and supply.
-Anti-social behaviour.
-Anti-social use of motor vehicles.

We will continue to monitor and update these priorities over the course of the next 3 months and following the next PACT meeting planned for July 2026.

Our key priorities are to make you feel safe within the areas you live by focussing on the following four themes; reducing Burglary, tackling Anti-Social Behaviour, dealing robustly with drug use and supply, and to promote and enforce safety on our roads.

These priorities will be updated with more specific detail following our Partners and Communities Together Meetings (PACT).
