E-scooters/e-bikes.

Issued 03 February 2026

In February, a policing operation to deal with nuisance vehicles across Medway was undertaken. This included illegal or unsafe use of e‑scooters, e‑bikes and off‑road motorbikes, with extra attention given to the Walderslade and Lordswood areas.

More than 30 vehicles were taken off the road. Two off‑road motorbikes were also found on Kestrel Road, a location the community had repeatedly highlighted as a hotspot for antisocial behaviour involving bikes and e‑scooters. Since the operation, we have already seen a decrease in reports of antisocial behaviour in the area.

As part of this work, I also visited local schools to talk to young people about the dangers of riding off‑road bikes or scooters without insurance or a licence, helping them understand the risks and legal consequences.

Drug taking.

Issued 03 February 2026

I have been working hard to tackle drug problems in our area. This has included carrying out regular, visible patrols in locations where issues have been reported, speaking with local residents to gather information, and working with other services to help reduce drug dealing and the antisocial behaviour linked to it.

A range of policing powers have been used including stop and search, executing warrants and using dispersal powers, when needed. This has helped identify and deal with people involved in drug use and drug supply.

A key part of this work is protecting people who may be at risk. I speak with vulnerable individuals, refer them to support services and work with schools and youth groups to explain the dangers of drugs and crime.

Because of these efforts, we have seen fewer drug‑related reports in key areas, and many residents have told me they feel safer and better supported. I have also visited local schools to help young people understand the dangers of taking or carrying drugs.
