Do you know your dedicated neighbourhood officer?

Dear Resident,

We’re writing to tell you of the significant progress we are making in delivering on the Government’s Neighbourhood Policing Guarantee (NPG).

Residents in every neighbourhood across Cambridgeshire now have a named police officer dedicated to their area. These officers serve as the first point of contact for local policing matters and are committed to building lasting relationships with residents and community groups.

In addition, neighbourhood officers will now respond to public enquiries relating to local concerns – such as anti-social behaviour – within 72 hours. This new standard of response aims to improve trust, transparency, and effectiveness in dealing with the issues that matter most to residents.

This initiative forms part of the Government’s wider Safer Streets mission, which will see an additional 3,000 officers deployed into neighbourhood roles nationwide within the next year. In Cambridgeshire, this will mean 30 extra police officers, seven PCSOs and 13 Specials.

This is a big step forward in enhancing visible, responsive policing at the heart of our neighbourhoods. People want to know who their local officers are, how to contact them, and that their concerns will be acted upon swiftly. We’re making that happen.

You can find details of your named officer and how to get in touch on our website. Simply enter your postcode or street name. There you will also find forthcoming events, local news and be able to see the latest priorities for your area.

Kind Regards,

Chief Superintendent Neil Billany

Head of Local Policing
