New faces for community policing in the Alfreton area
We would like to introduce some new faces for our Safer Neighbourhood policing teams in the Alfreton area.
The area has a new Safer Neighbourhood Team Sergeant and a new police officer who are working alongside our Police Community Support Officers covering Alfreton town centre, and the more rural villages of Whatstandwell, Crich and South Wingfield.
PC Adam Hardy has worked as part of our response team in the Amber Valley for 18 months, and before that was a Special Constable in Derby for two years.
He has already been involved in a number of community events and will be out and about in the Alfreton area and looking to speak with as many of the local residents as possible to discuss any concerns or issues.
Together with PCSO Mark Rogers and PCSO Jamie Wragg, the team will continue to target anti-social behaviour and work together with partners to help keep Alfreton and the surrounding area a safe place to live, work and visit.
Sgt. James Bowler joined Derbyshire Constabulary in 2008 and has worked on the response team in the Derbyshire Dales area, on the Ashbourne Safer Neighbourhood Policing Team and then the Derbyshire Rural Crime Team.
He was promoted to Sergeant in 2017 while working in the Amber Valley Local Policing Unit, where he worked until taking up the recent role within the Safer Neighbourhood policing teams covering Alfreton, South Normanton, Pinxton, Somercotes and Riddings.
Sgt. Bowler said: “I am looking forward to the new challenge and am dedicated to working hard to target the issues that affect the local community.
“The team have had some great results recently, securing a number of injunctions against individuals that have caused significant distress to a number of residents.
“I will continue to drive the team to develop long-term solutions to ongoing problems, together with our partner agencies, to prevent crime and reassure the public that we will deal robustly with those involved in criminality and anti-social behaviour.”
