http://www.hampshire.police.uk/internet/my-neighbourhood/gosport/gosport/gosport-east/The Safer Neighbourhood Team for the Privett and Alverstoke Neighbourhood area is currently made up a Sergeant, Police Constables and Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs).
The East Neighbourhood has a very diverse demographic, from the more affluent area of Alverstoke to the more deprived area of Leesland. The Leesland ward features within the list of most deprived areas of the country. The current estimated population is around 18,096 with the number of households estimated at 7816.
The neighbourhood attracts many visitors mainly to the Stokes Bay area which is a picturesque stretch of coastline well supported by hotels, cafes and restaurants. This area can become particularly busy during the summer months with sporadic incidents of anti social behaviour reported. The area also has many large areas of park land which are also well attended by the community which again and lead to issues necessitating police attention.
Current Priorities
Issue
Drugs use and associated human exploitation and harm are evident around the Town Centre.
Action
Local and specialist Officers will be intensifying their actions throughout the next month . We will be targeting the import and distribution of these illegal substances that have such a detrimental effect on peoples lives.
Issue
There is an address in TRINITY CLOSE which is managed by Gosport Borough Council. The Tenant of this address is acting anti socially and making other residents feel unsafe
Action
Our Team will be working with our colleagues in the Council housing and other departments to effectively address this poor behaviour by the tenant. No resident should be subjected to this behaviour and we shall strive to regain some stability to the area .
