work with partner agencies including councils, schools, charities, and local groups
tackle issues like antisocial behaviour, repeat offending, and vulnerability
build trust by being visible, approachable, and responsive
Neighbourhood policing is a key part of Kent Police’s commitment to being community-focused, visible, and responsive.

Local Priority Issues
| Priority | Action taken |
|---|---|
|
Antisocial behaviour - general. Issued 17 July 2026 |
We have been targeting hotspot areas associated to antisocial behaviour on motorcycles within the local community. A Surron bike was seized following reports from residents and intelligence is being developed to target other riders in an antisocial manner. Several illegal e-bikes have been seized during dedication days of action with more days of action planned. We have also been working with several housing associations to tackle reports of antisocial behaviour within their property and to take appropriate tenancy enforcement action. One property in the Newtown area resulted in an individual having their tenancy removed following reports of antisocial behaviour. Actioned 30 September 2026 |
|
Drug dealing. Issued 17 July 2026 |
We have been acting on information linked to drug supply within the local area following feedback from local residents. From developing the intelligence, a warrant was obtained at an address in Riverbank Way, Ashford, resulting in over 500 cannabis plants seized between that and other cultivations which has disrupted wider organised crime and an individual has been arrested. We have also proactively patrolled hotspot areas reported by residents, and several individuals have been subject to stop and search powers for drug misuse in the local area. An individual was arrested for possession with intent to supply a controlled drug in one of our hotspot areas. We continue to act on information reported to us via My Community Voice and other reporting methods. Actioned 30 September 2026 |
|
Road safety issues. Issued 17 July 2026 |
We have been working hard to address your concerns around road safety. We have completed a number of roadside speed checks around your ward. A number of traffic offence reports (TORs) for speeding. In addition, we have been working with Speedwatch to raise awareness about the scheme and will be holding a community event next month - check My Community Voice (MCV) in due course for full details. Actioned 30 September 2026 |
