The Police Anti-Corruption and Abuse Reporting Service was launched to offer people a confidential way to report corruption or abuse involving police officers, staff or volunteers.
Police and Crime Commissioners are working with Crimestoppers to make it easier to report those who:
💷🔄 Provide information or influence in return for money or favours.
🎖️💼 Use their policing position for personal advantage, whether financial or otherwise.
🚫🤝 Cross professional boundaries or abuse their position for sexual purposes.
🏠⚠️ Abuse or control their partner, or others they are in a relationship with.
❌🗣️ Engage in racist, homophobic, misogynistic, or disablist conduct, on or off duty, in person or online.
Anyone can report anonymously online via: crimestoppers-uk.org/get-involved/campaigns/the-police-anti-corruption-and-abuse-reporting-service

Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Dr Fatima Eltinay recently visited Doe Lea, on the Bolsover/North East Derbyshire border, to hear directly from partners and residents about ongoing anti-social behaviour affecting the area.
The visit focused on long standing concerns along Doe Lea Lane, where issues have included fly tipping, arson, land damage and wildlife crime.
Tackling these problems has involved sustained partnership working between Derbyshire Constabulary, local councils, the National Trust, community volunteers and other agencies.
A Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) is now in place, supported by this joint approach.
🚧 Discussions highlighted the wide range of activity underway — from enforcement and clean up operations to patrols and evidence gathering tools, including the use of drones — all aimed at improving safety and protecting the local environment.
🤝 The vital role of volunteers was also recognised, along with the value of continued partnership working and stronger links with local Neighbourhood Watch groups to help keep the area safe.
