Local Policing Teams
Your Local Policing Team is a group of local police officers dedicated to serving your community. The team is made up of officers based in your area, supported by additional officers across the county who work together to improve the safety and well-being of people, places and communities across Staffordshire.
We work closely with local authorities, community leaders and residents to decide our policing priorities for your area. This helps us to find useful, long-term solutions to local problems, while maintaining our force vision of creating a safer Staffordshire.

Priority:
Drug misuse and anti-social behaviour (ASB).
Action taken:
Our focus over the next three months is to reduce the impact of drug misuse and associated anti-social behaviour on local communities by targeting offenders, supporting vulnerable individuals, and fostering safer public spaces. We will address the harmful effects of drug misuse and anti-social behaviour by identifying and disrupting drug-related activity, supporting those affected by substance abuse, and responding to behaviours that cause distress or harm in public areas. This includes visible policing, intelligence-led operations, and collaboration with health and community services.

Priority:
Anti social use of vehicles
Action taken:
Over the next three months, we’re prioritising action on illegal e-scooter use, nuisance vehicles, and parking issues in our community. This includes tackling vehicles causing obstruction and inconsiderate parking. You’ll see more high-visibility patrols in key locations, targeted checks on disruptive or illegally parked vehicles, and enforcement against those breaking the law. Our aim is to reduce anti-social behaviour, improve road safety, and keep our streets clear and safe for everyone.

Priority:
Anti-social use of vehicles
Action taken:
Over the next three months, the neighbourhood policing team will target illegal parking and the anti-social use of vehicles, which the community has clearly identified as a key concern. Officers will focus on hotspot areas where obstructive parking, inconsiderate driving and nuisance vehicle behaviour are affecting safety and quality of life, using high-visibility patrols, enforcement powers and community intelligence to identify offenders and reduce disruption.
