Neighbourhood Priorities

Devon & Cornwall Alert

Your neighbourhood officers know how important it is to engage with their communities. Devon and Cornwall Alert is a two way community messaging system operated by Devon and Cornwall Police. The system helps us to connect with our communities, it tells people what is happening in their area and allows them to respond directly with any information.

The system is designed to allow people who register to choose the type of information they would like to receive concerning crime and anti-social behaviour, witness appeals, crime prevention, community events and local good news.

Subscribers will not be notified about every crime or incident that happens in their community. The aim is to send relevant information where we believe to do so will reduce the opportunity for crime and anti-social behaviour or will help Devon and Cornwall Police solve a crime.

Community Engagement Survey

Your neighbourhood officers know how important it is to engage with their communities. Plymouth police have developed a short survey, which will gather data about crime and antisocial behaviour in your area. The survey is anonymous, and the responses will be used to set policing priorities that matter to the majority of residents. A link to the survey is below:

Anti-social driving - We will conduct regular proactive patrols using marked and unmarked vehicles to target those causing the problems. We will conduct planned operations and educate and enforce where appropriate.

Engaging with Schools

After a nice long summer holidays, the schools have returned! The beat team are aware of problems with bullying and sexting involving pupils from the local schools. These issues affect children across the country and it not a problem specific to Plympton.

The Beat Managers and PCSO are regularly in contact with the schools in Plympton and we take a proportional approach to dealing with these matters.
