Neighbourhood Policing is our approach to fighting crime, addressing community safety issues and reassuring our communities. We are committed to listening to the needs of our communities and responding in a positive manner, creating confidence in the neighbourhood management of your area.
A neighbourhood is a "geographic area defined through local area agreement”. Neighbourhood policing is based upon local government ward boundaries. This ensures the alignment of police and public service provision, ensuring a focused delivery.
Each neighbourhood within North Wales has a dedicated team of Neighbourhood Policing officers managed by a Neighbourhood Policing sergeant.
Their aim is to achieve safe and secure neighbourhoods, providing a service that is tailored to local needs.
Neighbourhood Policing Teams are made up of:
Community Beat Managers (C.B.M.s) - police officers who are specialists in what they do, with specific responsibility for managing the neighbourhoods to which they are accountable.
Police Community Support Officers (P.C.S.O.s) – uniformed police staff who are responsible for tackling anti social behaviour and providing reassurance to their community. P.C.S.O.s are also dedicated to specific neighbourhoods.

Response Officers - police officers who respond to emergency calls in your area. They are responsible for the investigation of crime, apprehension of offenders and maintenance of order.
Special Constables - uniformed volunteer police officers who have the same powers as regular police officers.

How is Neighbourhood Policing delivered?

Influence over neighbourhood priorities in your area. We do not know all the issues and need your help to identify what matters to you. Your views will help prioritise the work that needs to be tackled in your neighbourhood. Your neighbourhood policing team are actively seeking your views. You can have your say through attending one of your neighbour consultation meetings, street meetings, postal surveys, by email, letter or telephone.

Interventions with communities and partners to bring about the successful resolution of issues that matter to you. Once we know which neighbourhood priorities need addressing we will seek to solve them by setting realistic objectives, identifying who will do what, highlighting what issues need more or specialist support and by identifying how we can work with the public and partners in the long term.
Answers to the priorities that you have set. We will provide feedback about what has been done in response to your concerns. Sometimes there may not be a sustainable solution in which case we will be transparent about why.
