Neighbourhood Officer Details
I have been with Leicestershire Police for around 7 years now.
I began my career working within neighbourhood policing, before working in prisoner management as a Police Officer.
After some time I became a response officer in Leicester city before transferring back to Melton's Response team.
I then joined neighbourhood policing once again, and I am passionate about the work I am able to achieve in the Rural North area of Melton Mowbray, an area I am proud to say I grew up in.
I joined Leicestershire Police in 2009 and have been a part of Melton Police throughout that time working on the various beats in the town. I have now been a part of the Melton Rural North Beat for the last 4 years. I have enjoyed getting to know the various communities across the beat and have built up professional relationships with our partner agencies.
I joined Leicestershire police in 2008 and since then have worked in numerous roles including response policing, the neighbourhood investigation team, the road policing team, criminal justice and neighbourhood policing. I became the Melton & Rutland area Commander in September 2023 with a responsibility for managing the local priorities and working with partners to develop an effective policing strategy.
I am Sergeant James Porter, I have worked across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland in a number of roles. I am now the supervisor for NR30, NR31, NR32, NR33 and NR34 beats.
