Operation Sceptre

📢 Community Update – Operation Sceptre Week

This week, we’re supporting Operation Sceptre, a national initiative aimed at tackling knife crime and keeping our communities safe.

Throughout the week, local officers will be: 🔹 Conducting high-visibility patrols in key areas
🔹 Carrying out engagement visits with schools and community groups
🔹 Taking proactive action to identify and deal with those carrying knives
🔹 Encouraging the safe surrender of knives and other weapons

Knife crime has devastating consequences, and everyone has a role to play in preventing it. We’re asking the public to support us by: ✅ Reporting any concerns or information about knife-related activity
✅ Speaking to young people about the risks and consequences
✅ Making use of knife surrender bins where available

If you have information or concerns, please contact us via 101 or report online. In an emergency, always call 999.
