Your Neighbourhood Policing Team
I am Dan Pickavance, Inspector, covering Harpurhey, Higher Blackley, Charlestown, Moston and New Moston, Collyhurst and Monsall.
I’ve worked for GMP for 15 years covering various areas and in a variety of roles. I am passionate about making our community safe and free of crime.
I have a background in complex investigations, organised crime groups, urban street gangs as well as neighbourhood and local problem solving work here in Manchester.
I understand the issues in our areas and priorities the local resources accordingly. I have shown this by the operations I have set up focusing on knife crime, serious youth violence, drug dealing and anti-social behaviour.
My door is always open, as is all of my officers and staff for any questions concerns and updates required by the local community we serve.
We continue to try and solve the issues in our community, rest assured we are working tirelessly to make our community safer.
