Neighbourhood Officer Details
I have 18 years policing experience across South Yorkshire and five of those years have been spent in Barnsley or neighbourhood policing.
I have been working in Barnsley since 2022 and have really enjoyed getting to know the communities and meeting the people who live and work here. I am passionate about neighbourhood policing and see working with our partners to make Barnsley a safer place to live and work.
I have been pleased to see that this is a vision shared by the hard working and dedicated officers on our teams and that the local partners, communities, and councillors are eager to support this goal.
We use partnership working, along with a problem-solving approach to issues in order to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour while providing support in other areas of day-to-day life through signposting people to our partners.
Through our 'you said, we did' initiative and our online content we update you on work done in our area and on certain upcoming engagement events you may wish to participate in. If you see our officers on patrol please don't hesitate to stop and say hello, we are eager to hear from local people and those who commute into the area for work and recreation.
I look forward to working with our partners, local councillors and the people of Barnsley in the future.

Priorities
| 14 Mar 2024 | Anti-Social Behaviour and drug crime has been pushed out of the Barnsley Town Centre. This has involved a series of beggars and nominals causing many inhabitants of the town centre and surrounding areas alarm and distress. You said that often the areas around the town centre get overlooked. Response (14 Mar 2024)Operation Sidewinder patrols in the suburbs around the Town Centre and within the Town Centre itself. Operation Sidewinder is completed roughly every six weeks and multiple positive stop searches are completed. We do this as a combined effort with our colleagues in Barnsley, West, North, South East, North East and South team as well as the Barnsley Council staff. |
| 1 Jan 2024 | Vagrancy has been raised as a concern within the Town Centre, with issues around persistent begging, rough sleeping and damage caused, as well concerns for those involved who may be vulnerable or in need of support. Response (14 Mar 2024)In conjunction with Council Street Wardens, Officers conduct regular joint patrols within the Town Centre and around known hot spot areas, engaging with individuals providing advice and support and sign posting them to support agencies. The Town Centre Public Space Protection Order also provides Officers with enforcement options to assist in managing the issue. |
