High harm offenders – We will continue to focus our
efforts on the small nucleus of offenders who we
identify as being behind the highest proportion of
disorder, nuisance or repeated thefts from stores. In
addition to positive police enforcement action, we will
work with partners to address the root causes of
behaviour, including mental health, drug and alcohol
addiction, and housing issues.

Anti-Social Behaviour Hotspots – In addition to the
additional officer hours dedicated to foot patrols and
high-visibility engagement in Sleaford, our Neighbourhood Policing Team will support patrols and make sure that the end of the school day in our towns passes calmly and without worry to shoppers, residents or retailers.

Drugs and Drug Dealing. We will continue to focus our efforts on drug supply in the town, developing our intelligence to understand who is making drugs available, and targeting those individuals to shut down the supply. In addition to positive police enforcement action, we will work with partners to address the root causes of behaviour, including mental health, drug and alcohol addiction, and housing issues.
