Aylesford North & North Downs

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.

Local Priority Issues

Priority Action taken

Road safety issues.

Issued 09 October 2025

We have been working hard to fix speeding concerns in Wouldham, particularly on Knowle Road and New Court Road. Patrols have been carried out alongside the Community Speedwatch Team, and a significant number of tickets have been issued for speeding. Thanks to these efforts, reports of speeding have reduced, which is great news for road safety. We’ll continue watching these areas to keep everyone safe.

Nuisance motorbikes.

Issued 09 October 2025

We are aware of issues with nuisance motorbikes, particularly around the quarry in Aylesford. Although this is slightly outside our patch, we’re working closely with local security and helping whenever incidents occur. Visible patrols on foot and checks are carried out when possible, and we’re committed to tackling this problem to stop problems and keep the area safe.

Actioned 14 January 2026

Fly tipping.

Issued 09 October 2025

When PC Brown first joined the team, fly-tipping was a significant concern, but we’re pleased to see that reports have dropped considerably. We continue to work with Parish Councils and partner agencies to watch the situation and quickly help if issues arise. Keeping our environment clean and safe remains a priority.
