Another busy month for the team
here at Gedling and I’ve a few
updates to pass on.
Licensed Premises
Firstly, a lot of work went into the
reopening of licensed premises
across the Gedling Borough. The
team were supported by police/
council licensing colleagues and
Gedling CCTV to ensure a safe
reopening. Going forward we will be
carrying out regular visits to licensed
premises to ensure that these are
operated as safely as possible and in
line with the government guidelines.
Our approach to the COVID-19
regulations remains one of Engage,
Explain and Encourage with any
enforcement being the last resort.
Policing Priorities
In other news the Neighbourhood
Policing team and Operation Reacher
have continued to work together
to address local priorities. Our
engagement with the public has been
ongoing using platforms such as
Facebook or Twitter and I’m pleased
that we have been able to address
some of their concerns around drug
use and supply with a number of
warrants carried out over the last
month. Whilst there is still a lot to do
there have been some great results.
On 21st July I joined the Gedling
South team and local councillors
for a walk around Netherfield. We
spoke with members of the local
community about ‘Operation Thistle’
which is our response to drug dealing
in the area and delivered letters to
residents in order to raise awareness
of our work and the ‘Crimestoppers’
charity. Drug use and dealing will
remain a priority going forward as I
know that this has a huge impact on
the local community.
The Crimestoppers charity is also
available and information can be
submitted via telephone or online.
Further details can be found here at

Operation Reacher
In other news Operation Reacher
continues to gather momentum. The
team have now taken delivery of their
new vehicle which has been fitted
with the latest ANPR (automatic
number plate reading) equipment
which has been funded through local
partnerships. In terms of success the
team have now seized over £37,000
in suspected criminal money.
Along with this they have arrested
or interviewed 56 suspects and
seized 38 vehicles. On top of that
17 warrants and 50 drug seizures
also means that a significant impact
is being made into criminality in
Gedling and the surrounding area.
The team are planning a number
of socially distanced engagement
events in the near future and we will
share details on our social media
pages once details are confirmed.
Details around our local policing
priorities and monthly updates can

That’s all for this month,
Take Care
