Kent police attribute massive reduction in crime to neighbourhood teams | Politics | The Guardian

  • Officers in Kent are attributing a virtuous set of crime-fighting and performance figures to the creation of neighbourhood task teams, units specifically tasked to deal with antisocial behaviour, vandalism, petty offending and nuisance issues flagged up by the public.
  • Eighty-four officers across the county work solely on these priorities, deployed separately to the beat officers who conduct routine patrols and those colleagues who deal with major offences and emergencies. They are ringfenced and cannot be redeployed to other duties save for under exceptional circumstances.
