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.

EAST WOLDS AND COASTAL APRIL UPDATE 2012
New Neighbourhood Police Officer for East Wolds and Coastal Area
Priorities / action taken
Rudston – Speeding
Traffic Officers have brought speeding to the attention to the Neighbourhood Policing Team after dealing with a Road Traffic Accident in the location. For the month of May traffic will be monitored using the speed board and speed gun in attempt to slow traffic speeding through Main Street. Details of any vehicle exceeding the speed limit will be noted and brought to the attention of Traffic so that they may assist with enforcement in the area
Rural crime – Metal theft
Metal theives targeted the stately home of Burton Agnes this month – two geese and 2 fountains were stolen. A full size figure statue was damaged as thieves tried to steal it breaking it off at the feet – it was left in the pond. The value of damage exceeds £4,000.
It is not only high value metal but metal items around the home such as garden impliments and furniture, tools left in vehicles – these are just as attractive if left available. Metal theft is on the increase and potential victims include domestic houses, empty properties, churches, businesses, highways metal work and infrastructure. The PCSO’s have recently organised surgeries targeted at crime prevention and tool/bike stamping and can continue to do so – this is free but needs to involve the Neighbourhood Watch and Parish Councils to assist.
Detecting Offenders can involve a variety of ways such as alarms, CCTV, UV marking – just simple neighbour awareness can be effective. If you see something suspicious please report it – ring 101
Offenders Brought to Justice

The Patrol Strategy for Your Neighbourhood Policing Team
Our strategy is that we use Police Community Support Officers, Regular and Special Constables to patrol set hot spots, such as the policing priorities given as well as those areas where crime and disorder occur. This can change rapidly and the details are taken from calls for service.
