Your Community Safety Unit
Your Community Safety Unit is made up of local officers and police community support officers, led by a sergeant and inspector. They’re based in your area and supported by the wider Kent Police team.
We work with councils, community groups and local leaders to tackle the issues that matter most, finding long-term solutions and reducing crime.
We publish the meetings and events we plan to attend, but attendance depends on operational priorities.
My Community Voice is a free messaging service that keeps you updated on local news, events and safety information from your policing team. Find out more and register for My Community Voice.

Nuisance motorcycles/vehicles.

Officers are carrying out regular patrols on Knockhall Road, where most reports of nuisance vehicles have been linked.
We are also working with Dartford Borough Council through joint visits to support ongoing action and help reduce these issues.

Priority:
Antisocial behaviour - general.
Action taken:
A police-led multi-agency operation to tackle antisocial behaviour (ASB) was carried out in Swanscombe, with extra patrols in Greenhithe and Knockhall.
Officers visited areas where issues had been reported and spoke to young people found gathering. Details were recorded and any necessary follow-up action is being progressed as part of ongoing work.

Priority:
Parking.
Action taken:
Additional patrols in areas affected by poor parking have led to a reduction in reports. PC Hodge and PCSO Mitchell will continue this work to help keep roads safe and accessible.
