Larkfield

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.

Officers are working with the Neighbourhood Task Force to address concerns about the illegal use of e-bikes in Larkfield Recreation Ground. Additional patrols and enforcement activity have been requested to help identify offenders, deter antisocial behaviour and respond to concerns raised by residents. Through ongoing partnership working and targeted patrols, officers aim to improve safety and reduce the impact of nuisance vehicle use in the area.

Catapults.

Issued 20 July 2026

Antisocial behaviour reports increased during the summer holiday period, which is often linked to young people spending more time outdoors. Since the return to school, the number of reports has reduced. Officers continue to monitor antisocial behaviour hotspot locations, carry out patrols and respond to concerns raised by residents and partner agencies to help prevent issues from escalating and keep the community safe.
