Your local team
Your Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) plays a vital role in tackling many of the local issues that matter to you. They are out in your area every day, and always available to offer crime prevention advice or for you to raise concerns with.
Each NPT consists of a dedicated Sergeant, Police Constables (PCs) and Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs), all under the command of an Inspector. While they may be the ones you see the most, the NPTs do not work alone. They are supported by staff and officers from across the whole Humberside Police force area, and they work closely with local authorities, community leaders and residents to decide the local policing priorities for the area and find useful, long-term solutions.
Our approach is shaped by four key themes: We protect vulnerable people and keep people safe; We are out in your communities, visible, listening and working with you to deliver the services you need; We successfully tackle crime and ASB; We will be there when you need us.

Priority:
Drugs, violence and anti-social behaviour - Montrose Street
Action taken:
Concerns were raised by residents regards drugs, violence and anti-social behaviour in the Montrose Street area. Over the past year the team have identified several properties as being potentially been involved. The team were successful in obtaining a closure notice at Hull Magistrates Court meaning a property has been closed, occupants removed and the property is boarded up. This property was then taken back into the possession of the housing provider with their own legal processes. We also made numerous arrests in relation to drug supply with a large quantity of class A drugs and cash being seized and 4 people dealt with accordingly. We have most recently removed another tenant from a property, and action on another tenancy is occurring in the near future. A final property has received community protection warnings, a formal notice and the next step is court action. We will also be aiming to work with partners to secure removal of this tenant if possible.
Calls to police about the area have reduced significantly, bu we are still working away to make the area a better place to live.
