Leicestershire Police, What Changes, Patrol & Resolutions Teams, and Managed Appointments Unit

Leicestershire Police, What Changes, Patrol & Resolutions Teams, and Managed Appointments Unit



We will revise how we deliver "response" policing by:

Implementing a new dedicated Managed Appointment Unit. This will deal with less urgent matters in a more effective and customer focused way. Same-day appointments to suit the needs of the caller will be available and much more frequently used than at present.

Delivering Emergency/Priority response through a forcewide team, removing arbitrary boundaries which can impact negatively on service delivery.

This Emergency/Priority response team will be called the "Patrol and Resolution Team"

Optimising locations of start-and-finish hubs for this service, and putting in place a crewing arrangements to maximise visibilty.

Hubs will be based at:

Loughborough (and Melton)

Euston Street

Keyham Lane

Braunstone

Providing improved IT, including mobile data, to ensure that officers can remain out and about.

Implementing a patrol strategy based on threat and risk and harm to ensure that the Patrol and Resolution Team, and other teams are utilised effectively. This will be dynamically managed by the Priority and Resource Commander.
