Your neighbourhood team
Our Neighbourhood Policing Teams are proud to police the area of Cleveland, which covers the districts of Hartlepool, Redcar and Cleveland, Stockton-on-Tees and Middlesbrough.
These teams are made up of police officers, police community support officers and special constables, and are supported by officers from other departments. They work to prevent crime, protect communities, tackle criminals and make sure those intent on causing our communities harm are stopped.
Our officers often run community drop-in events, and work closely with local authorities, community leaders and residents to shape our policing priorities for the area and find solutions to community problems.
Crimes and priorities

Priority:
Off Road Bikes throughout the ward area. Stillington park
Action taken:
In April, May, June we received 7, 1 and 0 calls respectively regarding off road bikes in the Northern Parishes Ward. We seized one motorbike within the ward in June.
The volume of calls regarding the anti-social use of motorbikes in rural and urban areas has increased dramatically throughout the UK since lockdown ended. Unfortunately, research shows that the volume of calls is continuing to increase. Whilst not every force suffers with the same level of problems, forces which are considered to have similar demographics to our own have seen considerable rises in calls for service relating to bikes. Operation Endurance is Cleveland Police's ongoing enforcement, prevention and partnership campaign to reduce the harm caused by off-road bikes and e-bikes, improve community safety, and disrupt those using bikes for anti-social behaviour or criminal activity. The dedicated Cleveland Police bike task force have seized 75 bikes county wide since being created in June 2026. -
Priority:
ASB around greenbelts and woodland areas of Wynyard and pond area of Stillington
Action taken:
Throughout this period, ASB reports have remained at a relatively consistent level. During June and July 2025, there were 15 and 8 reported incidents respectively. More recently, April, May and June 2026 there have been recorded 11, 9 and 4 ASB incidents respectively, indicating a continuing demand for police attention within the area.
Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) and Police Constables (PCs) regularly patrol identified hotspot locations and take positive action where issues are identified. These proactive patrols and engagement activities will continue in order to deter anti-social behaviour and address concerns raised by the community. -
