We work with the community and local partners, while also looking at our own data, to come up with priorities for Sheringham for the next three months. These are currently:
Tackle Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) including vehicle related ASB within the town.

We are aware of reports of ASB occurring at Sheringham Putting Green, Station Approach. These reports include groups gathering, underage drinking, causing disturbances, vandalism, and littering. In addition, there have been reports of vehicle related ASB across Sheringham, with concerns raised regarding vehicles being driven in an anti social and dangerous manner. We will continue to engage with our local communities and partner agencies to address these issues. We will also listen to concerns raised through our online drop-in surgery, community engagement events, high-visibility patrols, and social media platforms.

To tackle the issues identified, we will:

Increase high visibility patrols in and around Sheringham Putting Green.

Work alongside partners, including Sheringham Town Council and North Norfolk District Council, to address anti social behaviour and identify long term solutions.

Conduct targeted patrols to address vehicle related ASB, and follow up reports received from the public and utilise CCTV opportunities where available to identify vehicles involved and engage with drivers accordingly.

Work Completed to Date:

A warning has been issued to the owner of an e-bike following reports of it being ridden inappropriately within Sheringham.

A Section 59 Police Reform Act warning has been issued to a driver reported for driving in a careless and inconsiderate manner within Sheringham town centre.

Increased high visibility patrols have been conducted at Sheringham Putting Green, with engagement taking place with nearby residents and businesses.

Continued engagement has taken place through the Sheringham Community Alcohol Partnership, working collaboratively with partners to identify and implement solutions to tackling the harm of underage drinking.

We will continue to monitor the situation, proactively engage with the public and partner organisations, and take appropriate enforcement action where necessary.
