Joint Emergency Services Building, Wimborne Road, Poole, BH15 2BP
East Dorset is one of the larger policing sections in Dorset, & the team works hard to effectively engage with the public & work with partner agencies to resolve local policing priorities. The team is split into two strands, urban & rural. They both support each other, working closely with our response teams based in Ferndown & are supported by members of the special constabulary & community volunteers.
There are two smaller police stations in the area, mainly used for NPT’s. These are at Verwood & Wimborne, & the urban team is spread from Corfe Mullen with population of approx. 11,000 (2011), through to Wimborne with a population of approx. 16,000 (2014) along to Ferndown population of 27,000 (2011). Then up to Verwood via West Moors, with a combined population of approx. 22,000. Increasing expansion means this particular area has most of the sections population.
The team will patrol the area & engage with the community in order to provide reassurance & to deter crime. They can give advice on crime prevention & work hard with partner agencies to deal with problems reported by the community.
East Dorset has a very low crime rate & is a great place to live. It attracts lots of visitors & as such we want to keep both residents and visitors safe. We also want to continue our support of those affected by crime & protect vulnerable persons in the community.
Your NPT would like to hear from you about issues you may like to discuss, find your NPT officers by using the links below. Contact us, so that we together with our partner agencies work together to make East Dorset a safer place to live.

Priorities
1 Oct 2023 | 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. We will continue our patrols and partnership working to tackle ASB hotspots including King George V Playing Field, in Ferndown, and ongoing ASB in West Moors. |
1 Oct 2023 | 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. We are aware of ongoing drug use and associated ASB on the Leigh Park Estate, and the River Stour. We will proactively work with partner agencies and utilise our own methods to tackle the concerns. |
1 Oct 2023 | Reducing crime with a focus on Acquisitive Crime and Burglaries.
Our current Burglary figures are low, however it remains a top three answer on our NPT Priority Surveys. Therefore we will continue to tackle acquisitive crime and identify any crime series that may arise in the coming weeks, as we enter into the Autumn and Winter months. To help reduce the perception of crime within this field, we will ensure we communicate effective crime prevention advice and also highlight police enforcement through the use of Social Media, as well as working with local drug and alcohol teams to try and divert and prevent persons from turning to crime. We will also hold regular engagement opportunities where our communities can attend and learn more about burglary crime prevention. |
