Your safer neighbourhood team
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.
