Peterborough South

As one of two Chief Inspectors for neighbourhood policing within Cambridgeshire, I lead the neighbourhood teams across the north of the county (Peterborough and Fenland), overseeing six Neighbourhood Policing Teams (NPTs) and two Neighbourhood Support Teams (NSTs).

My Neighbourhood Policing Teams are split with four covering Peterborough, led by two inspectors, and two teams within Fenland which are led by one inspector. Each individual team has a dedicated sergeant, police constables and police community support officers (PCSOs), who are focused on tackling crime, anti-social behaviour and the problems in your area. We work in partnership with local authorities, partner agencies and residents to build stronger, safer communities.

The two Neighbourhood Support Teams consist of a sergeant and PCs, led by an inspector, and primarily focus on tackling county lines and organised crime groups, as well as a wide range of other things to support general neighbourhood policing.

My 18-year policing career started in Peterborough as a response officer before I was promoted to sergeant where I remained in response policing for a short while before moving into force-wide specialist roles. Much of my time was spent on frontline policing in Peterborough and in the Fens, dealing with all manner of calls for service which has put me in good stead to understand and appreciate the challenges in policing these areas, and the responsibility to support the many diverse communities we have.

My experience of policing has taught me that putting the right officers in the right place is key, whilst making sure we are visible, approachable, task-focussed and determined in tackling crime and disorder. My team and I are focused on delivering this through proactive, intelligence-led policing that is rooted in engagement.

I am proud to lead neighbourhood policing in the north, my teams and I are committed to "creating a safer Cambridgeshire" with neighbourhood policing at the heart of everything we do.

I’m the Neighbourhood Policing Inspector responsible for the North and South Peterborough teams, covering a wide and diverse area that includes both urban and rural communities. From the vibrant neighbourhoods of Hampton, Orton, Bretton and Werrington to the more rural settings of Eye, Wittering, and the surrounding villages, our teams are embedded in the heart of the communities we serve.

I began my policing career in 2001 and have held a variety of roles over the years, gaining a broad perspective on the challenges and opportunities within modern policing. For the past six years, I’ve focused on neighbourhood policing, working across all of teams in Peterborough. This experience has reinforced my belief in the power of local engagement and proactive problem-solving.

My teams consist of dedicated sergeants, police officers, and police community support officers (PCSOs), all of whom are committed to working closely with residents, local organisations, and partner agencies. Together, we focus on addressing the issues that matter most to our communities - whether that’s tackling anti-social behaviour, supporting vulnerable individuals, or building long-term solutions to recurring problems.

We are passionate about the work we do and the people we serve. Our approach is rooted in visibility, accessibility, and trust. We believe that by building strong relationships and maintaining open lines of communication, we can make a real difference in people’s lives.

Neighbourhood policing is about connection, collaboration, and creating safer, stronger communities for everyone.

I am a Neighbourhood Policing Sergeant within the Southern Peterborough Neighbourhood Policing Team, with responsibility for leading and coordinating officers and PCSOs across a number of diverse wards in the south of the city. These include Orton Longueville and Orton Waterville, Hampton Hargate and Hempstead, Hampton Vale and Haddon, North Stanground and Fletton, South Stanground including Cardea, and Woodston and Fletton.

I joined Cambridgeshire Police in March 2019 and spent my early service as a response officer, where I gained extensive frontline experience dealing with a broad range of incidents, vulnerability and demand across Peterborough. I was promoted to Sergeant in January 2024, bringing with me a strong operational background and a clear understanding of the pressures faced by both officers and the communities we serve.

In addition to my leadership role, I am a Public Order Officer and taser trained, with CBRN training and other specialist skills that support the wider force response. This experience enables me to provide effective operational oversight, ensure officer safety, and support my team during both day to day neighbourhood policing and more complex incidents.

Each officer within my team is responsible for a specific ward, allowing them to build strong local knowledge and relationships. My role is to lead the team collectively, ensuring a consistent, intelligence led approach across southern Peterborough while remaining responsive to the unique needs of each neighbourhood. I work closely with my officers to set priorities, manage demand, and drive problem solving activity that addresses crime, anti social behaviour and community concerns.

Neighbourhood policing is central to building lasting trust and confidence. By maintaining visibility, supporting partnership working and focusing on robust yet proportionate enforcement, my team and I are committed to delivering reassurance, tackling harm and contributing to safer, stronger communities across southern Peterborough.

I am the neighbourhood officer for the Woodston and Fletton wards.

I joined Cambridgeshire Constabulary in 2016 as a call handler in the force control room, and then joined as a PC in 2018. I’ve worked in response, response investigations and spent most of my career in neighbourhood policing.

My favourite day in the calendar is International Women’s Day and love to get involved with community events, so let me know if there are any events in the area which I could attend. Feel free to contact me to discuss your local concerns.

I joined Cambridgeshire Constabulary in 2017 where I worked as a PC in response policing before moving to neighbourhood policing in 2023.

I have been employed by Cambridgeshire police since 2018 and have been in neighbourhood policing since 2022.

My role is about engaging with the public, being a recognisable face to build a positive rapport between the community and the police. Neighbourhood Policing can be varied day-to-day, from being out on foot patrols, attending community events or being part of targeted work to solve long-term issues.

Policing is about people; it’s about listening, understanding, and working together to make our neighbourhoods a better place for everyone.

I am the neighbourhood officer for the Hampton Hargate and Hempstead wards.

Since joining Cambridgeshire Constabulary in 2020 I have spent five-and-a-half years in response policing and six months in CID before joining the neighbourhood team in 2026.

I am looking forward to getting involved with the community in my wards and, in particular, tackling youth anti-social behaviour. I am looking to gain intelligence for my areas so feel free to contact me or speak to me when you see me and share any information you deem suitable.

Outside of policing I am a qualified football coach in my free time, so I will be looking to host some events for the community throughout school holiday periods.

I have been employed by Cambridgeshire police since 2018 and have been a neighbourhood policing officer since 2023.

Before joining neighbourhood policing, I had roles in response policing, the volume crime team, and in the demand hub. Alongside my day-to-day role, I am also trained in method of entry (MOE) which means I am trained in techniques used to gain rapid entry to any place behind some form of barrier.

The best thing about my role is patrolling the ward and engaging with members of public. We also look at targeted activity and work with partner agencies to solve problems within our communities.

I am the neighbourhood officer for the North Stanground and Fletton wards.

I joined the police in 2017 and over the course of my career so far, have worked in response, investigations and neighbourhood departments.

I regularly hold policing surgeries, which is an ideal opportunity for members of the public to speak to us in person. I also attend the local schools in my area and give inputs to students on various matters, particularly ASB, the effect it has on the local community and implications for offenders.
