Over the coming months, police in Tameside will continue to work with communities and victims to improve our service.

We will be asking for your input to influence the policing of your neighbourhoods, to ensure our service is focussed on the needs of local communities, addressing the issues that matter most to people in Tameside.

There are a number of ways you can get involved, for example:
· Through your local Police and Community Together PACT) meetings
· By getting involved in local voluntary groups (e.g. Home Watch)
· By attending engagement and community events
· By responding to surveys
· By contacting us direct through this website

Officers, as a result of feedback from PACT meetings, have been working with the local authority on initiatives to provide youth activities and to target anti-social behaviour, as well as identifying ‘grot spots’ for the removal of rubbish by those working on the Community Payback scheme.

Effective policing is all about listening to the community and delivering a service that meets its needs. I would encourage you to get to know your local Neighbourhood Police Officer and contact them with any issues or concerns you may have. By working together we can make Tameside a safer and better place to live and work.

If you have a policing issue you would like to discuss you can contact your local Neighbourhood Policing Team:

Tameside Divisional Commander

The Government has set all police forces a target to raise public confidence that the police and local council are dealing with the anti-social behaviour and crime issues that matter locally.

65.4% of people surveyed in Tameside agree that the police and local council are dealing with the anti-social behaviour and crime issues that matter in this area.

This is the result of a face to face survey that was conducted in this area which asked local people whether they agree that:

“The police and local council are dealing with the anti-social behaviour and crime issues that matter in this area”.

Care should be taken in making comparisons in local indicators that have used different survey techniques.

The survey is based on a random survey of people in the local area. The use of a random sample aims to ensure the results are statistically representative of the local population. Compared to other estimates of how the population is made up, the sample for this survey may under represent some subgroups.

Greater Manchester Police has conducted Neighbourhood Surveys with local residents since April 2008. Following national guidance we have now moved to a face to face survey which was introduced in October 2009 and involves a rolling programme of interviews carried out between PCSOs and local residents. The survey focuses on:
  • Confidence in policing
  • Perceptions of anti-social behaviour
  • Neighbourhood Policing
  • Local priorities
The results are used to improve the service provided by the police and our partners.

The Government has set all police forces a target to raise public confidence that the police and local council are dealing with the anti-social behaviour and crime issues that matter locally. Performance against this target is measured at a force level through the British Crime Survey but local progress is monitored through our Neighbourhood Surveys.

Local people were asked whether they agree that, “the police and local council are dealing with the anti-social behaviour and crime issues that matter in this area”. This is how people responded in Tameside during October 2009 to March 2010:
  • 16.0% said they strongly agree
  • 49.5% said they tend to agree
  • 15.5% neither agreed or disagreed
  • 5.3% said they tend to disagree
  • 2.4% said they strongly disagree
  • 11.4% said they don’t know
