Improve community engagement opportunities with our communities. We find attendance at local community engagements is often low giving us little opportunity to engage with the wider community.

Introducing surveys to identify how the community best want to engage and communicate, continue to regularly put social media posts highlighting the good work being completed, advertise beat surgery’s, ward meetings and patch walks.

Regular complaints regarding inconsiderate parking in and around schools during pick up and collection times.

We have already successfully ran Operation Syphon (East Leicester Road Safety Operation). Engaged with Schools to pass messages out to parents and carers, attended and placed notices on vehicles.

Licenced premises in the area not adhering to their alcohol license conditions. Having an impact on anti-social behaviour.

The beat team conduct regular patrols around the location and visit licenced premises.
Licensing visits have taken place and are planned with partner agencies with a view to having all licensed premises in your community strictly adhering to their conditions, we are hoping this will prevent a significant rise in street drinking selling of vapes to minors and anti-social behaviour.
Licenses will be amended or revoked with there are not significant improvements in the coming months.

Retail premises across the beat area have reported incidents of theft from stores, causing financial loss to businesses and increasing concerns among retailers, staff and customers. Repeat offending and organised shoplifting negatively impact the local economy and community confidence.

The beat team already conduct regular patrols, hold beat surgeries, arrest offenders however we will continue to target these issues in line with the suggested action.

Reports of anti-social behaviour (ASB) increase during the summer holiday period within parks, open spaces and recreational areas. Issues include nuisance behaviour, alcohol-related disorder, littering, damage to property and activities that negatively affect residents and visitors.

The beat team already patrol areas we know are ASB hotspots however this will a specific focus for the coming 3 months.

Concerns have been raised regarding crime and anti-social behavior at Leicester General Hospital, including theft, disorder, vehicle crime and incidents impacting patients, staff and visitors. Such behaviour affects public safety and the hospital environment.

We work closely with the university of Hospitals trust security team but this will be a priority for the next 3 months.
