Current Priorities

Issue

Tackling Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) Our most recent NPT Priority Survey results continue to indicate that ASB is a top priority for the communities in Urban East Dorset. We know that ASB adversely affects people who live within our communities. The team will work in collaboration with our partners to explore possible solutions, in tackling ASB within our communities.
With the help of our communities, we will identify vulnerable people who may be susceptible to becoming a victim of ASB and this will help to us to inform, reassure and signpost them for the appropriate support. We will also target ASB hot spots and offenders, utilising ASB legislation and tools at our disposal.

Issue

Tackling Drug Dealing in the community We will proactively target organised drug supply by developing and acting on community intelligence. 
Our enforcement will be focused on the incidents that impact the most vulnerable. 
We will carry out regular safe and well checks on vulnerable members of the community, in conjunction with partner agencies and our colleagues in other Police teams. As part of this we will signpost vulnerable victims to our partner agencies and services that can offer help, support and advice.

Issue

Shoplifting and Retail crime

We are working with our partners and the local BIDs to reduce shoplifting. This includes training on how to gather evidence and support shoplifting reporting. We will also take part in pro-active work, including weeks of action to tackle shoplifting head on within our communities.
