Your Safer Neighbourhood Team
For the High Peak area we have two neighbourhood teams; Glossop SNT cover the northern half of the High Peak Policing area whilst Buxton SNT cover the south, both areas have a mix of both rural and town centre beats. Some of our beats are miles of open countryside which is beautiful to look but is a work place for our farming communities and a recreational space for our visitors. We understand that different areas of our communities need different neighbourhood policing support and engagement from us at different times. We work closely with our partner agencies such as Peak District National Park, High Peak BC and Derbyshire Fire and Rescue to keep all who live, work and visit here safe.

Nuisance Electric Bikes: Over the past few months New Mills, Hayfield and Birch Vale SNT have seen several electric bikes and E-Scooters riding around New Mills. We have been conducting regular high visibility patrols as well as. We have been doing targeted patrols around areas of reported use of E-Bikes and off-road motorbikes being driven in an anti-social manner. These areas include the Sett Valley Trail.
Burglaries: Burglaries and Thefts tend to increase as the evenings become darker. In response, we will be reminding residents of key crime prevention measures and encouraging the reporting of any suspicious activity. We will also be increased our high visible patrols, offering home security advice, burglary follow ups and bike and property marking events in the aim to stop people becoming repeat victims of crime. If a crime is in progress, please call 999 immediately. We appreciate the continued support of our community and remain committed to working together to keep New Mills safe.
Speeding Issues on A6015: Speeding is a big concern in all parts of the local area, but certain locations have been highlighted by residents where we have started to increase enforcement
