Allington & Bridge

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.

Catapults.

Issued 15 July 2026

Officers continue to respond to concerns about the misuse of catapults across the area. Reports suggest that many incidents involve young people carrying or using catapults in public places.

In response, officers carry out targeted patrols in locations where concerns have been raised and take action where appropriate. This may include the use of stop and search powers. A stop and search is a police power that allows officers to search a person for items such as weapons, illegal drugs or stolen property when certain legal conditions are met. Through ongoing patrols, engagement and enforcement activity, officers aim to reduce antisocial behaviour, prevent harm to people and wildlife, and address concerns raised by the community.
