Your Neighbourhood Policing Team
Your Neighbourhood Policing Team is a group of local police officers and staff dedicated to serving your community. The team is made up of police officers and a dedicated Police Community Support Officer (PCSO). These are supported by additional officers and staff from the wider area.
We work closely with local authorities, community leaders and residents to decide our policing priorities for your area. This helps us to find useful, long-term solutions to local problems, while maintaining our wider focus on the basics: to fight, prevent and reduce crime, whilst keeping people safe and caring for victims.
If you want to receive regular updates about what we're doing in your area, want to contact us easily with your feedback, or receive alerts about incidents, you can sign up to our community alerts system. You'll receive emails or text messages about the issues you tell us you want to know about.

Priority:
Anti-social behaviour and overt drug use primarily in car parking and industrial areas. The peak time for offences is during the late evenings.
Action taken:
Officers have worked closely with the council and have installed section 59 warning signs in many local authorities and privately owned open space car parks. These signs will act as a deterrent to people using their own vehicles in these car parks outside of working hours as any anti-social use can result in seizure of the vehicle.
Officers are also conducting high visibility patrolling, particularly during the late evenings. Local officers will also be gathering intelligence and will be utilising their stop and search powers to detect offences. Anyone found in possession of controlled drugs and/or weapons will be arrested and anyone found to be committing anti social vehicular offences will have their vehicle seized. -
Priority:
Your local neighbourhood officers will be targeting shoplifting offences at Chadderton Precinct through high visibility policing.
Action taken:
We will also be working with stores to try and mitigate offences. Criminal Behaviour Orders will be utilised to manage persistent offenders.
