Bedfordshire Police Information

Bedfordshire Police is dedicated to protecting people and fighting crime together.

At 477 square miles and with 664,500 people Bedfordshire is one of England’s smallest, yet most diverse, counties and faces complex crime challenges more usually seen in large metropolitan cities.

More than half of its residents live in its largest towns, Luton and Bedford, which have diverse and often transient communities, alongside smaller market towns and rural parishes.

Bedfordshire is a hub of transport link with London Luton Airport, the UK’s fifth busiest, the M1 and A1(M)motorways which traverse the county, and two principle railway lines that connect people with the heart of London in less than an hour.

Bedfordshire has a complex mix of volume crime, serious crimes, drugs, gangs and terrorism threats.Every day our officers meet threats, harm and risks like those in large cities.

Despite our relatively small size, we lead joint protective services which include Armed Policing, Dogs, Roads Policing and the Major Crime, for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire and are the lead force for the Eastern Region Special Operations Unit – a co - ordinated approach from seven forces in the region to tackle serious and organised crime and terrorism.

Priorities

23 Jan 2024

** Reviewed and continuing** Since April 2022 there has been on average 14.4 offences of theft from motor vehicle a month, in north rural Bedfordshire. December 2022 saw an increase above average to 16 offences and whilst we do not have most recent data the team have witnessed an sudden increase in this offence type. A significant proportionate of this crime suddenly appears to be catalytic converter thefts, with Bedfordshire being recorded as the 5th highest force in England and Wales for catalytic converter crimes.
Although greater trends for catalytic converter thefts are presently higher in central and south Bedfordshire than north rural, the local policing team wish to take proactive steps to address the new trend.
As a result your north rural community policing team will set theft from motor vehicle as their priority and over the coming quarter and will work to problem solve the issue, with the objective of reduction of offending through prevention and support prosecution.
To achieve this the team, will adopt a problem solving approach with partners, considering academic theory where relevant, to find ways to reduce the harm caused to the local community. Prevention is always better than cure, therefore efforts to raise awareness and adopt crime prevention will be considered and pursued.

1 Jan 2024

This is a joint Parish/Village priority across the whole of the North Rural area of Bedfordshire. There are multiple reports and complaints of perceived speeding which is being managed by data gathering, detection and enforcement.

1 Jan 2024

This is a joint Priority across more urban parish areas of the North Rural parishes/villages of Bedfordshire.
Bedfordshire Police have continual complaints of illegal E-Scooter use that has not had a dedicated focus to enforce the legislation. This Priority is to gather data and identify areas of use / users, to enforce legislation and reduce the use with education to others that Scooters will be seized where illegally used.
