Getting in touch with us

If you wish to raise any comments or concerns you can do so in a variety of ways such as:

• Attending local meetings:-

Police Surgery. An opportunity for you to meet privately with a member of the neighbourhood team to discuss any policing issue of concern. This is a drop-in event so you may have to wait a few minutes.

Police and Communities Together Meeting. This is a public meeting where the police and other public authority representatives will be present. Its main purpose is to determine what the local priorities for action over the next three moths will be. It gives members of the public an opportunity to raise their concerns and influence those decisions.

Street Briefing. The whole neighbourhood team will be briefed on current problems in the area and tasked to deal with them. The public can meet with the officers and be informed about how they can help with these issues.

• By email to the neighbourhood team - use the contact form on the right of the page.
• By telephone using the single non-emergency number 101.
• In person at any police station.

You can also notify us of any dissatisfaction with the service you have received by contacting our Professional Standards Branch. They can be contacted in a variety of ways details of these can be found by clicking here.

Yarborough Team

PCSO Edward Huxford (7716)

I have worked for Humberside Police since April 2007 covering the Yarborough Ward. I have an extensive knowledge of local issues and will prioritise my workload where necessary to meet the needs of the general public. 

Accessibility to our services is key to reassurance and service delivery and I am confident that this new look website will give up to date information about what is happening in your local area.  

If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to get in touch via the website or speak to me personally when you see me on patrols.  

Anti social behaviour, criminal damage and burglary are just some of the issues that blight our neighbourhoods and impact on public confidence.  

We need to know what is happening, however insignificant it may seem, so we can knit together an arrangement that will be of benefit long term and be able to measure where and what is required from the general public.

PCSO Andrew Whittaker (7821)

I joined Humberside Police as a PCSO in March 2008, where I spent 8 weeks training at Courtland Road in Hull ( Humberside Police Force Training Centre).

I was then assigned to the Grimsby Central policing team where I spent my first two months under tuition on the Nunsthorpe Estate.

I was then assigned to the Laceby Acres and St.Michaels area, which has since become the Yarborough Ward area of Grimsby of which I am now still assigned to.

During my time so far on the area I have built up a very good rapport with local residents, businesses and schools.

I am a governor at Western primary school through my role as a PCSO and I also am the SPOC for the "Marshall Avenue and Little Michael Street Neighbourhood Watch Group" and also "The Friends Of Kingston Gardens" group.

PCSO Tina Lawson (7897)

I joined Humberside Police as PCSO in April 2009 and after my initial training was assigned to work on the Yarborough Ward covering the Yarborough and Laceby Acres Estate.
 
Over the past two years I have got to know many people in the area including many local residents, those within the schools, children and community centres, and the retailers in the area. I am also the SPOC for two Neighbourhood Watch groups in the area. 
 
If you have any questions or need any advice please feel free to contact me on 101 or email tina.lawson@humberside.pnn.police.uk or catch me when I am out on patrol or at a street briefing (see meeting and events)

Sergeant Stephen Lynn (1133)

I joined Humberside police in 1987 and have worked in the Grimsby and Cleethorpes area for all of my service.

 

I am fully committed to the neighbourhood policing ethos and will ensure that the community continues to receive the highest level of service from our local team at all times.

 

I am based at the Cromwell Road police station and am responsible for the Freshney and Yarborough wards.

 

If you have any problems please contact me or any of the team and look out for the regular meetings which are held in and around the wards.
