Your neighbourhood policing team
Hello, my name is Lisa Bird and I am the Doncaster Central Neighbourhood Policing Team Inspector, covering Balby, Hexthorpe, Intake, Wheatley, City, Bessacarr and Cantley ward areas .
The team consists of three sergeants, fourteen police officers (PCS) and eight Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) who each have geographical responsibility for a geographical areas within the wards mentioned above.
If you see any of the team out on patrol please do stop for a chat and let them know what’s happening where you live, as this information is vital to help us understand what you need from us. It helps shape our priorities and gives us a better picture of life in the areas we police, allowing us to solve problems more effectively.
It is my honest belief that in working together, we can ensure the safety and well-being of our communities, developing on the work that is already in place.
Every month I will run Community Engagement Meetings where residents will be able to meet myself, officers and colleagues from partner agencies. This helps them identify emerging community issues or concerns which we can look to address. It also gives the opportunity to update local communities about the actions we are taking to address issues that have been raised.

Priority:
Nuisance vehicles at Herten triangle and the attraction of associated ASB with these vehicles and other individuals attending the area.
Action taken:
We are having a number of conerns raised around careless and incosniderate drivers, causing ASB within the Herten triangle area of Doncaster. We are working in conjunction with our colleagues within Doncaster Council to address layout and access to these areas, along with dedicated actions around set times of the day when we believe these issues are occuring. Regular patrols are being carried out within the area and irresponsible drivers dealt with accordingly. Our patrols are reflective of the information provided by the community and are focused on education and subsequent action towards those intent on causing issues within our localities. Should you have any further information please report to SYP or Doncaster Council.

Priority:
Through ongoing work in Hexhorpe we have identified a specific area that is being targetted for residential burglaries- due to the layout of the premises, surrounding buildings and ease of entry/exit. This has added to the ongoing issues witin the area linked to ASB and drug use.
Action taken:
We have continued with our mutli partnership approach to issues of ASB and criminality, as this has been having a positive impact in the area, however it has also identified other areas in which we can develop our work, listening to the voices othe community. This has included close work with schools- looking at how we can develop information and security packages in a method that people can understand. Getting school children to develop posters to utilise in the area and empowering the community to challenge the behaviours of others. Continued regular visible patrols at identified times, weekly drop in events, monthly CEM, schools engagement days, alongside direct Days of Action are having a positive impact on the community. We continue to monitor and adapt our working within the area, to ensure we meet the needs of our community and listen to their views. Please continue to report incidents and information through 101, online or via CrimeStoppers.

Priority:
Over the past several weeks we have recieved reports around the increased activity within Town Fields, linked to drugs and related anti social behaviour.
Action taken:
We have completed a number of plain and uniformed patrols in this area, stop searches have been completed and ultimaltey lead to the arrest of several individuals whom have been charged with associated offences. Alongside the criminal investigations we have also worked with partners from Doncaster Council and Starting Point, holding engagement stalls within this locality- giving people the opportunity to speak with us and raise any concerns that
they may have.
