POLICE DETAILS
West Mercia Police - Greenlands and Lodge Park Neighbourhood

I'm Mark Chappell and I am temporarily responsible for Local Policing in Redditch.

I have nearly 22 years of experience and have enjoyed numerous roles including pro-active and Intelligence Policing work.

Leading the Redditch Neighbourhood teams I look forward to working with local partners to tackle issues for the local community, targeting crime and antisocial behaviour and those who cause the most harm.

It's important that your Local Neighbourhood teams listen to local concerns and use information from local people to understand and support the residents and visitors to Redditch to provide policing for the local community.

If you have an issue or matter you want to talk to us about please get in touch using the details below

Hello , I'm Sergeant David Roberts

I have 25 years policing experience , 8 with British Transport Police and the last 17 with West Mercia Police at Redditch and Bromsgrove .

The majority of my police service has been spent on response and I have been a sergeant since 2005.

In July 2019 I was delighted to be offered the post of neighbourhood sergeant and I look forward to working  with   the communities of Winyates and Matchborough , Churchill and Greenlands, Lodge Park and Woodrow .

I am very lucky to be taking over a committed  team and will continue to support them in the work they do to tackle those issues which are important to local residents and businesses

James joined West Mercia in 2001 and started his career as a Local Response Officer at Redditch. During those 15 years James has spent most of his career in uniform. He has also had attachments working as part of a Vehicle Crime Team, Hate Crime and CID. James took up his current role as a Safer Neighbourhood Officer for Greenlands and Lodge Park in October 2015.

Jon joined the police in 1998. He has previously worked at West Midlands Police in the South of Birmingham and the city centre. Within West Mercia, he has worked in Batchley, Small wood, Evesham and Pershore before becoming part of the Church Hill SNT. He has a broad spectrum of policing experience in inner city, town and rural areas.

After a career in Security Management, Gemma joined West Mercia in March 2007 as a Police Community Support Officer.

She worked for the Safer Neighbourhood Team in Woodrow for two years, then one year covering the South West & Rural area of Redditch before a three year stint in Bromsgrove Town Centre.

In October 2013, Gemma was returned to her origins and is currently serving in the South Redditch area (covering Woodrow again) and loving it!

I started working for West Mercia in August 2018 and joined Redditch Safer Neighbourhood Team covering the Greenland's and Park Lodge area. I've always had a keen interest in policing and helping people and after multiple jobs in the hospitality industry I decided to make the change and challenge myself in the police environment. Policing has always appealed to myself I love getting to know people and helping the community to create safer places to live.

I have worked for West Mercia Police for nearly 11 years, starting in the admin dept for approx. 2 years then at the front counter for 8 years both in Hereford and Worcester. I am covering Green lands and Lodge Park in Redditch and I am looking forward to getting to know my local community and helping in any way I can.

Sarah joined GLP after 4 years in Worcester and 8 years in Bromsgrove, so is a well-established member of the team.
