Key Facts

  • Many towns claim to be 'historic market towns', but there has been a market in the centre of Diss, on the Norfolk/ Suffolk border for well over 500 years. The town, which lies in the Waveney Valley, was established around one of the deepest natural inland lakes in the country.
  • Diss has a population approaching 7,000. However, the town also serves a recognised rural catchment area of approximately 40,000 people.
  • Attractions in the area include the town's award winning museum located to the north of the market place and the steam museum and gardens at Bressingham.

The team

Welcome from Inspector Alice Scott

Insp Alice ScottWelcome to the Diss Safer Neighbourhood Team page. The neighbourhood is a rural location in the south of Norfolk bordering Suffolk.

In addition to the Beat Managers and PCSOs, every Safer Neighbourhood has five teams of Safer Neighbourhood Team (SNT) Patrol officers who will respond to your calls for service 24 hours a day, investigate the crimes in your area and work with the Beat Managers and PCSOs to deliver your local priorities.

We are listening to your issues and concerns and working with our partners to improve the quality of life in your neighbourhood.

Speak to your local officers by contacting us by phone, e-mail or online.

We are your Safer Neighbourhood Team and we are here to help.
