Edenbridge North and East

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.

Nuisance vehicles.

Issued 20 July 2026

Officers continue to tackle the illegal and antisocial use of e-bikes, e-scooters and other nuisance vehicles through targeted patrols and enforcement activity. Recent patrols have resulted in 2 e-scooters being seized after they were found to be posing a risk to other road users. Officers are also investigating reports of off-road bikes being ridden on public roads and open spaces in Edenbridge, and enquiries have identified a number of addresses linked to those believed to be involved.

Where appropriate, officers will use a range of enforcement powers, including Section 59 warnings and vehicle seizures. A Section 59 warning can be issued when a vehicle is being used in a manner that causes alarm, distress or annoyance to members of the public. If further offences are committed, the vehicle may be seized by police.

Through ongoing patrols, intelligence gathering and community engagement, officers continue to work to reduce nuisance vehicle use and improve safety for local residents. Residents are encouraged to report incidents and share information, as this helps officers identify offenders, build intelligence and take positive action.

Actioned 30 September 2026

Nuisance antisocial behaviour.

Issued 20 July 2026

Officers continue to carry out targeted patrols in Edenbridge, with a particular focus on areas affected by antisocial behaviour and nuisance vehicle use. Information from residents and local intelligence helps officers identify problem locations, target resources and take appropriate action where necessary. Officers work closely with partner agencies and the local community to address concerns, prevent offending and improve community safety.

Reports of antisocial behaviour that escalate into criminal offences are monitored closely, and proactive action is taken where appropriate. Through regular patrols, enforcement activity and community engagement, officers continue to address concerns in the area and provide reassurance to residents. Local people are encouraged to continue reporting incidents and sharing information, as this helps officers identify offenders, prevent further incidents and direct patrols to where they are most needed.

Actioned 30 September 2026

Road safety.

Issued 20 July 2026

Officers continue to address road safety concerns in Edenbridge through targeted patrols and enforcement activity. Several speed enforcement operations have been carried out in response to concerns raised by residents, resulting in a number of drivers being stopped for road traffic offences. Officers will continue to conduct patrols and enforcement activity at locations identified through community concerns and local intelligence to improve road safety and reduce offending on local roads.

Further speed enforcement activity is planned, and residents are encouraged to report dangerous, antisocial or inconsiderate driving. Information provided by the community helps officers identify problem locations and direct patrols where they are needed most. Concerns relating to parking enforcement should generally be reported to the local authority unless a vehicle is causing a dangerous obstruction or presents an immediate risk to other road users.
