Your Neighbourhood Policing Team is made up of Kent Police beat officers who are dedicated to keeping your community safe. They focus on preventing crime and antisocial behaviour, responding to local concerns, and building strong relationships with residents, community groups and local businesses.

Our officers will:

  • patrol to deter crime and reassure the public

  • hold regular engagement activities in the area, including attending community meetings to share advice and listen to concerns

  • work with partner agencies including councils, schools, charities, and local groups

  • tackle issues like antisocial behaviour, repeat offending, and vulnerability

  • build trust by being visible, approachable, and responsive

Neighbourhood policing is a key part of Kent Police’s commitment to being community-focused, visible, and responsive.

Parking.

Issued 03 February 2026

Officers have carried out regular patrols alongside Dartford Borough Council parking services. Vehicles found to be parked inconsiderately have either been issued with fines or asked to move on.

Actioned 31 March 2026

Noise disturbance.

Issued 03 February 2026

Alongside local PCSO Mitchell, officers have carried out regular patrols to discourage young people from causing disturbance in the area.

Officers have also been patrolling to target nuisance vehicles. This has included issuing fines and warning letters under the Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) put in place by Dartford Borough Council. A PSPO is a legal order that helps police and councils deal with behaviour in public places that has a negative impact on others.

This work helps reduce antisocial behaviour and provides reassurance to the local community.
