  • Priority:

    Shop Theft:

    This is the highest crime type in Mansfield. We have seen a 33% reduction in Mansfield over the last 12 months and work closely with the Mansfield Business Improvement District (BID), Mansfield District Council Community Protection Team and CCTV operators as well as stores themselves and our Engagement Hub and Business Crime lead to look to effectively tackle this issue.

    Issued 28 May 2025

    Action taken:

    Shop Theft - What we did and are doing:

    * Shown a reduction in shop theft of 33% in the last 12 months. Our positive outcome rate (the number of offenders dealt with by means of charge, report for summons to court, fixed penalty notice, community resolution etc.) for Mansfield for shop theft is 35% - this is the highest in all of Nottinghamshire.

    * Obtained 9 Criminal Behaviour Orders for our most prolific offenders in Mansfield. Requests for these orders are put together by Neighbourhood Policing Officers and then put before the Magistrates Court to be considered and authorised. They 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.

    * Conducted monthly multi-agency Days of Action (Operation Amberstag) in the Town Centre and Portland areas focusing on shop theft, street based offending and other issues in the areas.

    * Commitment to Retail Crime Weeks of Action as well as #ShopKind

    * Worked closely and collaboratively with the Mansfield BID, working jointly from their office in the Town Centre along with BID officers and Mansfield District Council ASB officers.

    *Worked closely with the most targeted stores around Mansfield to look at target hardening, problem solving and targeted patrols.

    *Utilised the Town Link radios (supplied by Mansfield BID) for stores to have easier access to report issues occurring in the Town Centre to officers from Mansfield District Council (including CCTV operators), other stores, the BID and Police.

    *Attended BID meetings with local businesses so that we can provide information and trends to local business owners as well as receive feedback and ideas regarding issues in the town and how best to tackle them.

    * Increased patrols through Home Office Funding for Hotspot Patrols - Both Portland and the Town Centre have been covered by Home Office funding allowing us to deploy additional officers at times when crime trend data shows offending is highest.

    * Working with partners in Mansfield District Council Housing and Homelessness Teams as well as Framework, Change, Grow, Live (CGL) and other third sector agencies to look to support those offending and deal with the route cause of this offending.

    Actioned 28 May 2025

  • Priority:

    Drug Dealing:

    We understand that concerns around drug dealing are consistently reported highly amongst our communities regarding incidents that affect them most. Furthermore, we receive numerous reports and pieces of intelligence with regards to drug dealing out in the community as well as addresses members of the public believe are being used to deal from (often with concerns for the residents of those addresses regarding possible cuckooing) as well as addresses suspected to be cannabis grows.

    Issued 28 May 2025

    Action taken:

    Drug Use and Dealing – What we are doing:

    * Officers obtained numerous Closure Orders for addresses in Mansfield linked to drug use and dealing and general criminal activity and anti-social behaviour and causing a serious nuisance to their neighbouring properties and communities. We continue to progress closure orders for several properties. We have several problem solving plans in place either focusing on general issues with dealing in areas or based on specific addresses.

    * Officers also work with other agencies (Mansfield District Council Housing and Homelessness Teams, PA Housing, YMCA etc.) with regards to drug dealing and issues around cuckooing and vulnerability.

    * Officers worked with intelligence provided, conducted high visibility and plain clothes patrols and targeted operations. From January – May 2025, officers have dealt with 6 parcels stopped by Border Force, 14 offences of possession with intent to supply drugs, 12 cannabis grows and 14 warrants / address searches whereby supply amounts of drugs were located. Again, we continue to gather intelligence and are monitoring several addresses for warrant applications currently. In addition, 129 offences of possession of Class A, B and C drugs have been dealt with.

    * The positive outcome rate (resulting in a charge, report for summons to court or out of court resolution such as a conditional caution) for drug offences in Mansfield is 66%.

    Actioned 28 May 2025

  • Priority:

    Vehicle related Anti-Social Behaviour:

    This covers a variety of issues from use of E-Scooters on public land, illegal use of off road bikes, reports of car meets that cause noise nuisance etc.

    Issued 28 May 2025

    Action taken:

    What we are doing:

    We have seen increased reports of anti-social behaviour involving vehicles. This priority will continue to focus on three main areas:

    * E-Scooters – Communications shared with schools and via our Social Media channels re: the illegality of E-Scooter use on any public land. Although the law is very straightforward about the use of e-scooters in public, there is a lot of confusion amongst the general public.

    They see them being used on the Continent (where they are legal) and they can freely buy them on the high street or online. Unfortunately, many people say that the fact that they cannot use them on the roads was not mentioned when they were sold them, and they are unaware of this restriction. As such, we look to deal with E-Scooter offending in line with Force Policy; - Engage, Explain, and Educate, with Enforcement as a last resort. More advice on E-Scooters can be found here - https://www.nottinghamshire.police.uk/advice/advice-and-information/rs/road-safety/advice-escooters/

    * Car meets in various open air car parks in the evenings and overnight - We received numerous reports from members of the public who live nearby to open air car parks reporting loud gatherings, engine revving, screeching tires etc. affecting their ability to sleep, have their windows open and general quality of life.

    Officers conduct operations in the affected areas speaking with those involved and discussing the issues they are causing. Where appropriate, dispersal powers are used as well as notices under s.59 of the Police Reform Act 2002 which is a robust power allowing officers to seize motor vehicles which are being driven inconsiderately or carelessly on a road or other public place or without lawful authority, off road or on any road that is a footpath, bridleway or restricted byway and in such a manner as to cause, or is likely to cause alarm, distress or annoyance to members of the public.

    * Fatal Four Operations - Officers have undertaken Fatal Four Operations in key locations as requested by members of the local community.

    We will continue to do so going forward and results of these operations will be shared via Notts Alert (you can sign up here to keep informed - https://nottsalerts.co.uk/Content/Pages/Sign-Up).

    are offences prioritised by the police in the NPCC road policing strategy, to reduce the numbers of people killed and seriously injured on the roads. The fatal four offences are: Speeding, Drink and drug driving, Driving while distracted (i.e. mobile phone use) and Non-wearing of seat-belts.

    * Off Road Bikes – Not only in the Desert area and fields but more so in residential areas and on our roads. There is a Public Spaces Protection Order in place in the Desert also. We have bid for several dates with our Forcewide Off Road Bike Team over the coming months to ensure we have the right capabilities to be able to tackle this issue. We have produced a short video detailing the issues faced and officers efforts here - https://www.nottinghamshire.police.uk/news/nottinghamshire/news/news/2025/january/police-stepping-up-patrols-of-mansfields-desert/
