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.

Continued focus on drug misuse and its effects
Action taken:
Over the next three months, we’re prioritising action on drug misuse and the harm it causes in our community. This includes tackling drug-related crime, dealing with hotspots where misuse leads to anti-social behaviour, and addressing the wider impact on safety and wellbeing. You’ll see more high-visibility patrols, targeted operations, and enforcement against those involved in drug supply and misuse. We’ll also work in partnership with local authorities, health services, and community organisations to reduce harm, support vulnerable individuals, and keep our streets safe for everyone.

Anti social use of vehicles
Action taken:
Over the next three months, the neighbourhood policing team will focus on tackling issues of inconsiderate parking and speeding, which the community has highlighted as key concerns. We will target areas where obstructive parking and excessive speeds are creating safety risks and reducing residents’ quality of life, using visible patrols, targeted enforcement and community intelligence to identify offenders, improve road safety and restore confidence in the affected locations.
