Beeston North

Back to Beeston

The local beat team, based at Beeston Police Station, covers the area of Beeston North. This team comprises of: 1 Police Officer and 1 Police Community Support Officer, with the support of Special Constables.



Beeston North beat is a residential area made up of the Bramcote Hills estate and Beeston Fields estate. There are parks in both estates with children's playing facilities, football pitches and a bowling green. Beeston North beat is surrounded by Beeston town centre, Wollaton and Lenton Abbey. Roads that border Beeston North are Wollaton Road, Derby Road, Woodside Road and Broadgate.



There are a number of main roads running through the beat area. Two of these are the A52 Derby Road, which is a three-lane carriageway running from Nottingham towards Stapleford, and Wollaton Road, running between Beeston and Bramcote.



There are numerous schools within the beat area, including Beeston Fields Junior School and Bramcote Hills Comprehensive School. There is a community centre on Boundary Road, Beeston that organises and runs a number of activities that cater for all age ranges, including youth clubs, a friendship group and dog obedience classes. We have a youth motivator bus run by Broxtowe Council every Thursday on Beeston Fields Park.

Under the Policing Pledge, this is an urban beat and has a 15 minute emergency response time. For an explanation of what this means click here.

Beat Priorities

Through consultation with the members of the public in this beat we regularly set out a number of priorities to be tackled.

  • Street drinking Show details
    Following the PACT meeting held on 04 December 2009, it was decided that the priorities would be anti social behaviour and street drinking, between evening times especially weekends, which would cover Beeston beat. This would cover Beeston Fields Park and Central Avenue, however Operation broadside would cover the whole of the beat during the evenings of the weekend between 1800 hrs until 2200 hrs. Operation Broadside is our anti social behaviour operation.

    Our Response
    The methods to be used in combating the issues raised will be by high visibility patrols in these areas at appropriate times by members of the Neighbourhood Policing Team and The Special Constabulary.

    Positive action will be taken and offenders arrested where required. Use will be made of stop and search powers and powers of dispersal. Alcohol seizures will be made.

    Regular meetings take place between ourselves, the Borough Council and Youth services to discuss areas and person’s of concern and actions to be taken. This may involve the use of Acceptable Behaviour Contracts (ABC’s) and ultimately an application for an Anti Social Behaviour Order (ASBO). In the first instance a letter will be sent to the individual or their parent warning them regarding their behaviour.

    This priority will be reassessed in March 2010.

    Update 16/02/2010
    Uniformed patrols have continued throughout January and it is pleasing to note that there has been a marked reduction of antisocial behaviour, street drinking and gangs on the streets. Community feedback is positive.
    Arrests have been made in the Central Avenue, Beeston area for being drunk and disorderly / public order offences. Additionally, due to the extra patrols, crime in general has been reduced in Broxtowe South by 38% which equates to 142 less victims.
  • Anti Social Behaviour Show details
    PACT (Police and Communities Together) Meeting on 04/12/09 found, from the results of surveys distributed, that anti social behaviour and street drinking during the evening times, especially on weekends, is a concern locally. The PACT meeting was for the cluster of Beeston beats and agreed to make this a priority for action in: Beeston town Centre/Broadgate and Central Avenue area.

Beat Update

UPDATE FEBRUARY 2010 BY PC 3043 ANDY HALLSWORTH

PCSO Craig Cooper and I have been busy patrolling the area. Craig has recently assisted the Police in arresting two people for theft. It is believed that the offenders could have been responsible for various street robberies in our area.

I have been arresting offenders for being drunk and causing anti social behaviour on Central Avenue, Beeston. I have charged and bailed to crown court eight offenders for the affray occurring on Wallett Avenue last October 2009, with strict bail conditions.

Crime has been reduced in Beeston by 38% on the same time last year. It seems that due to the arrests on Central Avenue and extra police presence in the Central Avenue area there are fewer reports of anti social behaviour by residents.

Craig and I are busy working with Broxtowe council anti social behaviour team to make Beeston North a better and safer place to live. We are currently working on several anti social behaviour orders on a number of offenders who frequent our area.
