How the RAFP support your community

Community policing, or community-oriented policing, is a strategy of policing that focuses on developing relationships with our community members both within Defence and the general public. To create and foster a bond between Law Enforcement and residents.

It is a philosophy based on the traditional Policing concept that is focused, where the RAFP patrols areas such as the Family Quarters (SFA), developing a relationship with its occupants through direct engagement and a visible presence, in an aid to detect, deter and deny antisocial behaviour and criminal opportunity. Purpose

The main purpose of community policing aims to reduce low-level crime, through problem-oriented policing and intelligenceled policing, which supports and focuses our reactive policing strategies. Goal

The central goal of community policing is for the RAFP to build relationships with the community, through engagement with residents, local agencies and businesses to reduce social disorder.

How we do this

We currently host a bimonthly crime reduction presence at the Link Café every other Wednesday where we encourage you to approach us with any concerns you may have regarding the local area. We frequently conduct leaflet drops both around Station as well as the SFA, to offer the Defence community information and advice on a wide spectrum of topics from how to secure your belonging within and around your home to the increasing and alarming vulnerabilities surrounding cyber security. You may have seen us in Sainsburys working with our Civilian Law Enforcement counterparts, with whom we have a firm and well established relationship, providing joint advice and reassurance to members of the local community.
