Sheerness
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.

Ebike/e-scooter. Issued 21 July 2026 |

This ongoing activity has helped reduce incidents and reassure residents that concerns are being taken seriously. Actioned 30 September 2026 |

Nuisance youths. Issued 21 July 2026 |
Officers have maintained proactive patrols in locations identified through community feedback and previous reports, particularly during peak times when incidents are more likely to occur. Through engagement with young people, local businesses, schools, and partner agencies, officers have been able to identify those involved in antisocial behaviour and intervene at an early stage. Where necessary, positive action has been taken, while education and engagement have been used to prevent repeat offending. This continued approach has helped reduce antisocial behaviour, provide reassurance to residents, and strengthen relationships between young people and the wider community. Actioned 30 September 2026 |
