Tuxford And Trent

Bassetlaw is a non-metropolitan district consisting of four towns; Worksop, Retford, Tuxford and Harworth Bircotes. There are 66 parishes servicing a population of over 117,000. Bassetlaw consists of rural areas and market towns.. The Bassetlaw Neighbourhood teams are led by Inspector Rob Harrison, with three teams comprising of a Sgt, PCs and PCSOs under his command.

Historically a market town and on the Great North Road, Tuxford was a stopping point for carriages on the road to and form London.

We work closely with local authorities, community leaders and residents to decide our policing priorities for the area This helps us to find useful, long-term solutions to local problems, while maintaining our wider focus on reducing crime across the district.

Please find contact details for your Neighbourhood Team provided below. Please note that to report a crime or incident to Nottinghamshire you can visit nottinghamshire.police.uk or in an emergency, please dial 999.

Did you know you can help influence local policing in your community in a number of ways. Nottinghamshire is a pilot area for Immediate Justice where; the scheme provides an opportunity for those who commit low level antisocial behaviour to compensate the community by undertaking supervised reparation activities which help to improve the environment e.g., litter picking, graffiti removal. You can report what areas you would like to see such activities here:-  

Immediate Justice (immediatejusticenotts.co.uk)

We run Op Visibility every Friday and Saturday afternoon and evening across all our districts in Nottinghamshire patrolling Hotspots for anti social behaviour as identified by members of the public. You can complete our Op Visibility survey on the link below which if you tell you have witnessed a form or ASB in the past month will generate a request for you to identify where this was on a map so we can consider adding it to our patrol plans.

Please select one of the below options to start the survey. (nottsalerts.co.uk)

Local Priority Issues

Tackling the supply of drugs in our communities and drug use

Drug dealing and supply again features high on the PCC's Crime survey. Again this is a priority for the police in Bassetlaw who frequently carry out proactive patrols in areas identified and also execute several misuse of drugs act warrants

Our road network is vast in Bassetlaw, with it comes people driving dangerously and speeding

Carry out speed checks, establish community speed watches and also police the road network

Our district borders three other force areas and attracts cross border criminals. Burglaries, theft of motor vehicles are some of the crime types we see on our area and cause great harm.

Operations to tackle crime types such as OP STAR
Additional specialist resources to police our road network and intercept those using our road network to committ offences.
Hot spot policing where we are seeing emerging issues.
