Walderslade
Your Neighbourhood Policing Team is made up of Kent Police beat officers who are dedicated to keeping your community safe. They focus on preventing crime and antisocial behaviour, responding to local concerns, and building strong relationships with residents, community groups and local businesses.
Our officers will:
patrol to deter crime and reassure the public
hold regular engagement activities in the area, including attending community meetings to share advice and listen to concerns
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.
Report crime
Please do not contact neighbourhood officers to report crime.

Nuisance youths. Issued 21 July 2026 |
Reports of nuisance behaviour involving young people and the misuse of catapults are often linked. When there are legal grounds to do so, officers may stop and search people suspected of being involved in antisocial behaviour, criminal damage or other offences. Any offences identified will be dealt with appropriately, and information may be shared with neighbouring policing teams to help prevent problems moving from one area to another. Community support remains vital in helping to identify those responsible. Residents are encouraged to report incidents and, where safe to do so, provide any available evidence such as CCTV footage, doorbell camera recordings, photographs or videos. This evidence can play an important role in identifying offenders, supporting investigations and helping police take action to prevent further incidents. Actioned 30 September 2026 |
|
Catapults. Issued 21 July 2026 |
Officers have been responding to reports about the misuse of catapults and working to reassure the local community. Following reported incidents, officers have spoken with residents and gathered information to help build a clearer picture of those involved. High-visibility patrols have also been carried out in affected areas to provide a visible police presence, help people feel safer, and discourage further antisocial behaviour. Actioned 30 September 2026 |
|
Road safety issues. Issued 21 July 2026 |
Officers have continued to carry out road safety patrols across the area in response to concerns raised by local residents. This work has included monitoring locations where issues have been reported, speaking with road users, and taking action where driving behaviour puts others at risk. Where appropriate, drivers committing traffic offences have been stopped and dealt with through advice, education or enforcement action, depending on the circumstances. These patrols help improve road safety, discourage dangerous driving, and provide a visible police presence within the community. Actioned 30 September 2026 |
