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.

Road safety issues. Issued 20 July 2026 |
Speed checks and proactive patrols are carried out in areas where residents have raised concerns about road safety. Officers use these checks to identify unsafe driving and take appropriate action, which may include issuing traffic offence reports, court summons or making arrests where necessary. We also work with partner organisations and local schools to promote road safety education and encourage safer driving behaviours within the community. Actioned 30 September 2026 |
|
Drug taking. Issued 20 July 2026 |
Police are actively tackling drug-related crime through targeted patrols, intelligence-led operations and enforcement activity across the area. Officers work closely with specialist teams to disrupt organised drug networks, including county lines activity, and take action against those involved. Information from local residents plays an important role in identifying and addressing drug-related issues, and the public are encouraged to continue reporting any suspicious activity so concerns can be investigated and acted upon. Actioned 30 September 2026 |
|
Antisocial behaviour - nuisance. Issued 20 July 2026 |
We work closely with Medway Council, housing providers and youth services to address ongoing issues and help prevent problems from escalating. Where necessary, officers may use powers such as dispersal orders, which require people causing or likely to cause antisocial behaviour to leave an area for a set period. Officers may also issue Community Protection Warnings or Community Protection Notices, which are formal measures used to address behaviour that is having a negative impact on the local community. Information provided by residents remains vital and helps police identify concerns, direct patrols and use resources where they are needed most. Actioned 30 September 2026 |
