2 Anti Social Behaviour - Hi visibility patrols in the locations identified. Working alongside all our partner agencies including our Youth Engagement Team to engage with young people and assist them and arrange diversionary activities in the local area. Consideration should be given when Utilising powers which are suitable for other disposals such as Acceptable Behaviour contracts working with Remedy, immediate justice, restorative justice to educate young people also ensure we are going into schools and carrying out engagements, and educational inputs at schools and youth clubs - Beavers-scouts- Cricket, football, rugby clubs with early interventions in place.
3 Burglaries - SNT to provide Hi visible and plain clothes patrols in hotspot locations, visit locations identified and conduct H2h and CCTV trawls to identify offenders. Issue crime prevention advice through the many Community Engagement initiatives and events arranged on the area. incorporate Derbyshire talking surveys whilst providing reassurance to the communities. Regularly review intelligence and crime trends to plan patrols and enforcement where applicable.
4 Vulnerability - We have close working relationships with the local authorities, local housing associations and other partner agencies, this allows us to identify those at risk and work together with our partners to ensure all aspects are being considered. We visit our most vulnerable victims regularly, sometimes daily, offering reassurance and support. We have also taken robust action against the offenders, making arrests at the first opportunity and enforcing strict bail conditions, offering an extra layer of support to the victims.
