Your safer neighbourhood team
Neighbourhood policing within Surrey Police is delivered by Safer Neighbourhood Teams in each of the 11 districts and boroughs of the County. Each neighbourhood within the districts and boroughs is served by a dedicated team of officers and staff.
Neighbourhood Teams provide community engagement, targeted foot patrols and collaborative problem solving to tackle the issues that cause the greatest harm in our communities. Teams are made of sergeants, police officers and PCSOs, led by the Borough Commander, with further support provided by other team members - with specialisms in youth engagement, licensing and crime prevention.

Priority:
Shoplifting is a National priority, and has an impact on businesses and consumers in the Slyfields and Bellfields area.
Action taken:
Officers have been targeting shoplifting within the area by pursuing repeat offenders, with an aim to reduce retail crime. Our team have increased their patrol activity in hotspot areas, increasing visibility to ensure that shop staff feel supported to report crimes, and reducing the opportunity for retail crime to occur.

Priority:
Anti-social behaviour (ASB) - Continuing reports of ASB and Anti-Social Driving (ASD)
Action taken:
Reports of ASB have increased, and our team have taken on more patrols and engagements in hotspot locations to provide a more visible presence in the community. Officers have been responding to more ASB reports in person, and our PCSOs have been holding engagement events to inform the community on local issues and to allow for any queries and concerns to be answered.
