Community mobile police office

In early 2001 a project bid was compiled to assist with the funding toward a 'Community Mobile Police Office' to serve throughout the rural community which included 'Hambleton District'. The initiative was to bring policing back into the rural areas and to involve all 'Community Safety Partnerships' to assist in reducing the Fear of Crime. The bid for 186,000 from Local Government Office was successful and the project is now up and running within the area.

The 'Unit' itself is self-contained and has much up to date equipment ranging from top communication links to LED displays and computers for public presentations. As part of the project a full-time Co-ordinator is employed. He is responsible for its day to day running and assists all agencies in an effective and efficient manner.

The 'Unit' has been used to deliver many initiatives which have included 'Home Safety Road Shows' that have seen visitations to all the market towns in Hambleton, the Community Safety School Challenge project, Neighbourhood Watch and Drug Awareness Evenings. These are all run by joint agencies within the Partnership. The 'Unit' was also a valuable asset in a recent bid for 'Beacon Council Status' within the Community Safety Department based at Hambleton District Council Offices.
