Four extra police officers, dedicated to tackling crime and anti-social behaviour in the Royal Borough, are proposed to be recruited to support community safety and enhanced local partnership working with the police.

The proposed £240,000 investment from the Royal Borough is part of the budget plans for 2023/24, which Cabinet is recommending to Full Council for discussion and approval on Tuesday 21 February, as part of the budget-setting process.

If confirmed by Full Council, four additional warranted police officers will join the Neighbourhood Policing Team working across the Royal Borough, initially for a period of three years, enhancing our existing partnership work with Thames Valley Police to address key local crime issues and anti-social behaviour affecting communities and the environment.
