Sheffield South East
Date published: 20 September 2023 08:29Welcome message from the Neighbourhood Inspector Nikki Watkinson
Hi all and welcome to the South East Neighbourhood Policing Team webpages.
I am Temporary Inspector Nikki Watkinson and I moved over to the team in South East of Sheffield in February 2023 after a period of time working as Sergeant in the Sheffield City Centre Neighbourhood Policing Team.
I have over six years policing experience in a number of portfolios including response, neighbourhoods, and the domestic abuse team, and was previously a special constable for over three years before becoming an officer. I am immensely proud to take on this role and the responsibility that comes with it. I am very passionate about my communities and about the work my team do on a day-to-day basis to keep our areas as safe as possible for all who live, work and visit them.
My team has responsibility for the following areas: Manor, Arbourthorne, Norfolk Park, Gleedless Common, Heeley, Park Hill, Wybourn, Darnall, Tinsley, Attercliffe, Woodthorpe, Richmond, Handsworth, Woodhouse, Beighton, Westfield, Mosborough, Sothall, Owlthorpe, Waterthorpe, Halfway, Hackenthorpe, Frecheville, Birley, Jaunty, Base Green, Gleadless Town End and Crystal Peaks.
I am keen to hear about any concerns you have, and also about community groups and networks we can involve ourselves in. Our PCSOs regularly host pop-in police stations across our area, and are always looking for new places to visit and offer their support and reassurance. If you have a venue we could use, please get in touch. We are actively looking for opportunities for engagement and to build relationships with those in our communities.
I have a fantastic, committed and hard-working team of PCs, PCSOs and Sergeants who are there to help you, so get in touch and let us know what you need from the team.
Your local police station is:
Moss Way Police Station
Moss Way, Sheffield
S20 7XX

South East Team Priorities
As a result of surveys and conversations with members of our communities about the issues which matter most to them on the South East area of Sheffield, the current policing priorities for the Sheffield South East Neighbourhood Policing Team are as follows:
- Anti-Social Behaviour - we have a number of Problem Oriented Policing plans to tackle this issue in hot spot locations. We also have hot spot patrol plans which support this and ensure we have the right presence in the right areas to tackle this issue along with a number of partners
- Drug Use and Drug Supply - this is across the South East area and sees us gather intelligence, conduct stop checks and stop searches and execute warrants to tackle this issue as part of our core business
- Off Road Bikes and Nuisance Vehicles - this continues to trouble members of the community understandably and as such, we have two key Problem Oriented Policing plans that relate to this for the Westfield and Woodhouse Team area and the Manor and Arbourthorne Team area. We encourage the public to give us information about who is riding these and where they are stored. We look to gather intelligence and regularly request the assistance from the Off Road Bike Team to take positive action against those involved in this type of nuisance
Another key priority that we are aware of and which impacts our communities is:
- Neighbourhood Crime - Burglary and Theft of and from Motor Vehicles are impactive crimes which affect their victims and cause harm. One of our current key priorities is to work alongside CID colleagues who form the Neighbourhood Crime Team to tackle this by way of Problem Solving plans, patrols, pursuing and targeting main nominals, and concentrating on engagement and crime prevention to assist people in making these crimes harder to commit for criminals

We have also recently seized a number of Off Road bikes in different areas of the South East patch including Manor, Arbourthorne, Woodhouse and Westfield.
We have Problem Oriented Policing Plans for Off Road Bikes and Nuisance Vehicles for the Manor and Arbourthorne wards and for Westfield Centre and its surrounds.
We regularly bid for the assistance of our Off Road Bike Team to conduct patrols in hot spot locations and we work closely on community intelligence received around this issue. If you know who is riding these bikes and where they are stored, we want to know about it! You can report online via our website, ring 101 or contact Crimestoppers. The more information we have, the more we can direct patrols to the right locations. If you want to know what the Off Road Bike Team are up to, you can follow them on Facebook - SYP Off Road Team. You can also message them information via this means too.

A number of drugs warrants have been carried out in this particular area and drugs seized, cannabis set ups discovered and dismantled and individuals arrested and dealt with positively for the offence of Possession with Intent to Supply and Drug Possession.
The Darnall and Tinsley Team and Westfield and Woodhouse Teams have similarly been involved in a number of drugs warrants across their area and are keenly gathering intelligence around properties where drug production and supply is taking place.
We have a number of current Problem Oriented Policing (POP) plans relating to the issue of Drug Supply and Drug Use coupled into the Anti-Social Behaviour it causes, and we continue to proactively patrol these areas and look to detect and deal positively with offences.
We work on community intelligence and are keen to hear from anyone who wants to provide information around this ongoing issue. This can be done anonymously via our online reporting portal, or via Crimestoppers.

We are currently concentrating particular efforts to our Problem Oriented Policing (POP) and patrol plan areas:
Main Road and Staniforth Road, Darnall
Mandeville Street, Darnall
Stovin Drive, Darnall
Handsworth - particularly McDonalds, KFC, Aldi and the local Scout Hut
Westfield Centre, Westfield
Woodhouse Town Centre
Stradbroke Rd shops
Basegreen
Errington Estate, Arbourthorne
Fairleigh, Manor
Steel Steps, South Street area
Anyone found committing ASB will be dealt with positively by the Team - we have different powers available to us to do this, depending on the age of those involved. Recently, a number of persons have been dealt with by Parent Advisory Letters, Anti-Social Behaviour Contracts, Community Protection Warnings and Notices and Criminal Behaviour Orders.
We work closely with schools in our area to educate children and young people around ASB and the harm it causes, and we are also working closely with the Local Area Committees and partners around better youth provision and channelling the energy of young people in to things they enjoy, to deter them from ASB and nuisance.
Again, if you need to report anything of this nature to ourselves, this helps the Team build up a picture and better resource the areas where ASB is causing problems to residents and business owners.
We regularly run online Q&A sessions on our social media accounts.
Forthcoming events hosted by the Inspector with our Safer Neighbourhood Coordinator from Sheffield City Council, will be published soon.
