Chesham Neighbourhood
Every neighbourhood in Thames Valley has a dedicated Neighbourhood Policing team.
Neighbourhood Policing teams can be contacted via 101, the Thames Valley Police non-emergency number. Always call 999 in an emergency.
Neighbourhood Policing teams…- Are led by senior police officers and include police community support officers (PCSOs), often together with volunteer police officers, volunteers and partners.
- May serve one or several neighbourhoods.
- Work with local people and partners to identify, tackle and prevent local, low-level crime, anti-social behaviour, and any ongoing concerns.

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.

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.

Priorities
| 1 Apr 2023 | Burglary (dwelling) Response (3 Nov 2023)Based on feedback from the public, burglary continues to be one of the highest concerns of the community. Due to this, the neighbourhood policing team continues to make this one of their top priorities, particularly now as the winter months begin to draw in. The neighbourhood policing team have been conducting directed patrols of identified high risk areas, increasing their visibility in the area in an effort to deter burglars. They have been working with local Neighbourhood Watch Teams to put in place free Crime Reduction surveys for victims of burglaries as well as their neighbours. |
| 1 Apr 2023 | Drug-related issues Response (3 Nov 2023)The Neighbourhood Policing Team have been patrolling areas identified to have high activity in drug related offences, they have also worked to obtain intelligence to support warrant applications. In addition, the team have been working closely with partner agencies such as housing, to robustly deal with drug offenders. |
| 1 Apr 2023 | Speeding Response (3 Nov 2023)Whilst speed enforcement is not principally owned by the Neighbourhood Policing Team, they have periodically conducted speed enforcements in Chesham. Working with the Town Council, they have gained a full assessment of the times and places where speeding occurs, meaning resources can be focused on the high demand roads. |
