Whitchurch West Mercia Police Police Local Neighbourhood

I have 15 years Police service undertaking a number of jobs such as patrol, SNT, training and custody.  I have been a Safer Neighbourhood Team Inspector since October 2017.

I have a real passion for ensuring that my team work effectively to address vulnerability,  tackle crime and anti-social behaviour and bring offenders to justice.  We target those doing the most harm within our communities.

North Shropshire and Oswestry are safe places to live and work and along with partners and the community my team are there to ensure this remains the case. 

Constable Wheeler has worked in West Mercia for 10 years supporting the community within various roles within North Shropshire and Shrewsbury demonstrating an approachable and collaborative style of policing.

She brings with her a wealth of experience and a passion for engaging with the public to ensure their concerns are addressed promptly.

Graeme joined West Mercia in 2006 as a Police Community Support Officer. After training, he was posted to Whitchurch Rural Local Policing Team. After a couple of years on this, Graeme became a Whitchurch Town PCSO. He has now reverted back to being primarily the Rural Officer, but still works in the town when need be. Please feel free to get in touch via his contact details.

The Safer neighbourhood Team and Local Council have received a number of reports of anti social behaviour around Tescos and around the railway station.

Once those involved have been identified, appropriate action will be taken.

In the case of youth ASB the action is likely to include dispatch of ASB letters. In the case of more serious issues, the action taken will depend on the nature of the behaviour.

Anti-social behaviour and drug related activity in the town centre and surrounding area.

SNT officers with the support of Patrol Officers if required to address issues of ASB.

Drug offences dealt with.

You people are reported to be drinking underage and using drugs in Jubilee park, putting themselves and others at risk. A lot of litter is also being left by people in the car park.

There has been a reduction in youth related ASB in the park although the areas are still subject to ASB and criminal offences.

SNT are liaising with the town council to improve CCTV, security of the memorial garden and requesting the provision of bins in the car park.
