Woodthorpe
The borough of Gedling has a population of 112,000, which lies to the North East of Nottingham. It is primarily an urban area, which covers the Arnold and Carlton areas, as well as some more rural communities. For the majority of his life, it was home to Lord Byron. The Gedling Neighbourhood teams are led by Inspector Heather Harding, with three teams of PCs and PCSOs under her command. These three teams are split into Gedling Central, Gedling South and Gedling North, each supervised by a Sgt.
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.

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:-

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)
