Ringlestone

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.

Local Priority Issues

Priority	Action taken
Antisocial behaviour - nuisance. Issued 14 April 2026	In response to concerns about antisocial behaviour, we have increased patrols in the area and assigned dedicated local officers to address issues and provide reassurance. A recent community engagement event was well attended, giving residents the opportunity to discuss their concerns directly with officers and help shape local policing priorities. A further event is planned for later this summer. Officers have also been carrying out regular visits to two addresses linked to reports of disorder and antisocial behaviour. Working closely with housing providers, we are taking steps to address the underlying issues and prevent further offending. This partnership approach is helping to reduce antisocial behaviour and improve the quality of life for local residents. Actioned 03 July 2026
Antisocial behaviour - general. Issued 14 April 2026	My Community Voice (MCV) posters have been distributed across the area to encourage residents to sign up for local policing updates. MCV provides a quick and easy way for residents to report concerns, receive crime prevention advice and stay informed about policing activity in their community. Increasing engagement through MCV helps officers better understand local issues and ensures residents receive timely information about matters affecting their area. Actioned 03 July 2026
Highways obstructions. Issued 14 April 2026	There have been continued reports relating to the same locations. However, enforcement can be challenging due to the road layout and the limitations of current traffic legislation. Officers have spoken with drivers where appropriate and provided advice regarding safe and considerate parking. The situation will continue to be monitored, and further action will be taken where offences are identified. Actioned 03 July 2026
