Your Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) are a group of local police officers dedicated to serving your community. The team is made up of officers and PCSOs based in your area, supported by additional officers from the wider area.

We work closely with local authorities, community leaders and residents to decide our policing priorities for the area. This helps us to find useful, long-term solutions to local problems, while maintaining our wider focus on reducing crime across Devon and Cornwall.

SCHOOL PARKING

Unfortunately, some parents and carers continue to park inconsiderately and dangerously, including on double yellow lines, zig-zags, and pavements. It is a common issue at lots of schools across the patch putting people at risk of harm

Issued 13 May 2026

Our local team has stepped up foot patrols around schools to help keep everyone safe. While we always aim to educate drivers first to prevent it happening, we have had to move vehicles and will issue penalty notices to frequent offenders. The safety of our children remains our top priority. Please help us keep the school environment safe for all. Abuse and excuses will not be tolerated. Thank you for your cooperation.

RETAIL CRIME CROWNHILL


Issued 13 May 2026

Our local team has been actively addressing shoplifting concerns in Crownhill Village. We have set up high visibility meetings and patrols within the CO OP and surrounding shops. Through regular patrols, close collaboration with store staff, and targeted visits, we have made significant progress in reducing theft in these areas. The introduction of the PARC scheme (Plymouth Against Retail Crime) is helping us strengthen these efforts, and we hope it will continue to reduce the shoplifting trend in the area. We remain committed to working with the community and local businesses.

KIDS VAPING

Issued 13 May 2026

Eggbuckland Neighbourhood team arranged a test purchasing op with the young Police cadets, targeting the local shops to ensure the correct challenge for ID procedures were being implemented. I am happy to say the under cover cadets failed at purchasing a vape and were asked for ID in every shop which is really positive.
