POLICE INFORMATION

Throughout my service I have seen a lot of changes which is expected in a large organisation such as ours.  However  with the formation of the Community Policing Team (CPT) in 2015 it saw a reduction in the number of community officers and the withdrawal of ‘beat officers’ from local areas. My concern has always been that local residents do not know who their local officers are and the Community Policing Team had become in some cases a faceless entity.

Since taking over in February, my priorities have been to change  how we interact with our public, increasing community engagement, increasing the number of officers on the Community Policing Team (an ongoing battle). The Braintree District is huge a total of 236.18 square miles and with an approximate population of 147,084 which is increasing.

The numbers of officers on CPT are small, however I also have some of the best officers available, who want to give the best service possible to our residents. In order to achieve this the officers and PCSO’s have been allocated areas of responsibility. Why has this been introduced? To bring about a culture of ownership, pride, identifying & understanding local issues early, signposting to the correct agency and having better engagement with our residents.

The areas involved have been separated into three main location based on the three main towns, Halstead, Braintree & Witham.

The reason for this email is to share with you the details of your local Community officers who will have responsibility of the Halstead area:
