Gedling Borough Priorities – July - September 2025
Begging:
This remains a priority to enable to team to continue with the work that they have been doing in the local area, identifying and warning prolific beggars as well as signposting them to support and considering their welfare needs as well as the impact on the community. There is already an operation in place with a clear escalation process in relation to dealing with beggars, but this will expand to consider cross border offending and more information sharing with partners to find a longer term solution to the problem.

Gedling Borough Priorities – July - September 2025
Shop theft:
There continues to be a high level of shop thefts in the borough. The NPT have been developing plans to tackle this and it remains a priority to enable them to continue with their proactive work.
The NPT teams will be conducting additional patrols, proactive days of action to deter and promote awareness of the problem along with working towards Criminal Behaviour Orders for the most prolific offenders. These orders can include conditions such as banning offenders from carrying bags for life, banning them from certain stores and areas as well as positive conditions such as seeking rehabilitative treatment. Breach of a Criminal Behaviour Order is an arrestable offence and will see the offender put back before the Magistrates Court.

Gedling Borough Priorities – July - September 2025
ASB:
As we move into the summer months, there has been indications that the level of anti social behaviour in the borough has increased. Discussions with partners have highlighted the need to have this as a priority to ensure that Police are playing their part in the PCC initiative of keeping our town centres safe.
The NPT will be working hard to identify repeat offenders of ASB and ensuring that they are dealt with robustly, in collaboration with Gedling Borough Council, various housing associations, and, if relevant, social care and the courts.
