Local policing is at the very heart of what we do – we want Lancashire to be a better place to live, work and visit.
We operate across three ‘divisions’ – East, West and South. Each of these divisions has many specialist officers dedicated to keeping you safe including neighbourhood policing teams.
These consist of Neighbourhood Policing Officers, Task Force Officers, including Rural Task Force Officers, and Police Community Support Officers. They work together with colleagues across the force to tackle local policing priorities and keep our communities safe.
Lancashire is committed to neighbourhood policing and the three pillars that underpin it – engagement, problem-solving and targeting activity.
To tell us what you think of your area and what sort of issues you think we should be tackling, take part in Lancashire Talking.
Anti-social Behaviour including the use of vapes additional substances, Road safety (E Bikes) Business crime.
Issued 06 October 2026
We work to reduce youth antisocial behaviour at key locations in the town centre and this has included setting up a working group of key partners.
As the use of vapes with additional substances is a contributing factor to antisocial behaviour, numerous warrants and enforcement visits with partners have taken place in an attempt to disrupt the sale of these vapes.
We target roads identified by the community as being a concern to them. We also engage with local schools, and have carried out a number of e-bike operations.
