Neighbourhood Policing

Officers from your Neighbourhood Team make regular foot patrols across the Clifton South area: they are very approachable!

Do speak to them if you have any concerns or just need advice.

Their contact details are in the accompanying panel.

The Clifton Police Facebook page has up-to-date information covering the local area.

The official Nottinghamshire Police Facebook page has similar information covering the wider county. Both are worth following for current news.

Notts Alerts is the community messaging service for the whole of Nottinghamshire, providing you with updates on the issues that matter to you.

It is the primary channel for Nottinghamshire Police and the NPT to communicate with residents especially those who choose not to use social media.

Use Notts Alerts to connect with your local policing team and tell us how we can best protect your community.

The NPT strongly encourages residents to sign up for Notts Alerts (it's free).

By entering your post code you will receive emailed information relevant to the local Clifton area:

• Crime updates
• Safety advice
• Road closures and incidents
• Appeals for information
• Adverts for any events or meetings like Beat Surgeries, Lets Talk etc.

You can speak directly with an officer by replying to an Alert. However, this is not for crime reporting.

Beat Surgery - is a planned drop in session with local neighbourhood officers from the NPT based at Clifton Police station which covers Clifton Village. These events are usually held community centres, the library, or the NPT engagement car /van that parks outside places usually shops, in different areas in Clifton, Silverdale and Wilford.

It’s for:

• Local problems e.g. antisocial behaviour, speeding, suspicious activity: the public share information with officers which helps us gather intelligence
• Advice and reassurance

It's not for emergencies!

Lets Talk – is a community event or survey

• Giving feedback
• Sharing concerns
• Helping police understand what matters in your area

This helps set local priorities for neighbourhood teams, and offers the opportunity for an informal chat with the police. Usually, we do this at the places like cafés around the Clifton area.

Upcoming events are posted on the Clifton Police Facebook page and on Notts Alerts

The Neighbourhood Team also carries out visits to schools, universities, local community meetings and any business to which they are invited.

 Communication with the public is the key for us.
