Have Your Say logo From the start of 2010, Thames Valley Police extended its neighbourhood consultation by introducing a wider range of publicised opportunities to meet neighbourhood teams.

We will provide open monthly meetings to allow the public to influence our priorities. These meetings will be branded as Have Your Say opportunities, and in many cases will be held in conjunction with partners.

Once local priorities have been identified, a broader ‘toolkit’ of problem-solving tactics is being made available to ensure crime and anti-social behaviour is tackled effectively.

Across the Thames Valley area, there are many successful Neighbourhood Action Groups which will continue to deliver local problem solving, but the introduction of Have Your Say meetings will allow neighbourhood teams to identify more quickly those specific local priorities that need attention.

Thames Valley Police views the introduction of Have Your Say meetings as a positive step in tackling issues that matter most to the public. I welcome your support and engagement in this endeavour.

Current Priorities

Issue

Antisocial behaviour was voted as one of the priority issues by local residents following a community survey.
The main issue in Aylesbury North since SEPTEMBER 2024 was reports in ELMHURST and other parts of AYLESBURY that a female was going door-to-door asking people for money. This female was identified and is currently serving a prison sentance.
ASB in Aylesbury North from 01/04/2024 - 28/03/2025 showed there were 60 reported incidents for that period (ASB crimes). This was down by 17 from the previous year whereby 77 incidents were reported. This shows a reduction of 22%.

Action

The local neighbourhood policing team continue to work towards reducing ASB involving begging door to door. This will be measured by comparing previous numbers of reports to those moving forward upon the known offenders release.
Actions include a specific officer monitoring reports involving this individual and act accordingly along with providing reassurance to those affected. We will communicate all outcomes of action to the community via social media.
This priority will be reviewed 30th monthly and actions reassessed if needed.
