Ripley Town Centre

I'm Inspector Brooks and I am in charge of Amber Valley.

I have worked for Derbyshire Police for over 18 years and previously worked at Amber Valley as a response officer and Safer Neighbourhood Sergeant. I am very happy to be returning back to my roots and managing the area as the Inspector.

Over the past few years I have been a Reactive Inspector covering the entire north of the county which has given me a wealth of experience dealing with the most serious and high risk incidents. I will be using my experience to develop my teams so we can respond promptly and robustly to incidents, investigate and prevent offences and safeguard the vulnerable members of our community.

I am committed to ensuring that my teams are visible in the communities, that they develop long-term relationships with partners to help solve problems and tackle antisocial behaviour, drug related offences and illegal use of motorbikes/electric bikes.

I have been working for Derbyshire Constabulary for over 12 years now. During my service I have worked a number of areas in varying roles. I started my career as a response PC at Buxton then Response PC at Chesterfield. I then joined Chesterfield CID as a Detective, before coming to Amber Valley as the SNT Sergeant looking after Ripley, Belper and Heanor since 2019.

As SNT Sergeant I manage a team of experienced officers who are proactive and driven to keep the residents Amber Valley safe. They are visible in the communities and put victims at the heart of their investigations. I am incredibly proud of the team I manage and the work they do and we will continue to protect the vulnerable, investigate crimes and bring offenders to justice.

I have 19 years’ service with Derbyshire Constabulary, where I have spent all my time working in the Amber Valley area as a PCSO and now as a PCSO Supervisor.

PCSOs are embedded in our communities, offering visibility and reassurance, building trust and confidence, understanding the local issues that affect our communities, and working tirelessly to problem-solve and resolve the issues that have a detrimental impact on people living in, working in, and visiting our communities.

It’s important to put the community at the heart of everything we do, engaging with residents, listening to their concerns and worries, problem-solving, and robustly addressing anti-social behaviour and crime in order to make Amber Valley a safer place to live and work.
