Welcome to Welford Road local policing unit
Welford Road local policing unit (LPU) comprises a largely residential area covering the Aylestone, Eyres Monsell, Freeman and Knighton areas of Leicester.
The key issues from a policing perspective are to continue to reduce the number of offences of acquisitive crime, such as burglary, robbery and thefts from vehicles, which are committed within the LPU, and to tackle anti-social behaviour.
