Welcome to Northamptonshire Neighbourhood Alert
Find out what's happening in your area and keep in touch with Northamptonshire Police, its partners, and our emergency services through our free messaging service.
The Neighbourhood Alert messaging system enables residents, businesses and community groups to keep in touch with local policing teams. You can choose to receive updates on crimes, latest information on on-going incidents and learn more about what events are being planned in your area. You can also respond to messages to ask questions or give feedback to your local policing team.
You're invited to sign up and become a registered recipient of messages relevant to the area where you live or work.
We also offer you the opportunity to choose the type of messages you wish to receive.
We would really like to hear from you so why not ask your family, friends and colleagues to register too? Let’s get talking!
Please note that this service is not for reporting crimes or incidents – to make a report please contact Northamptonshire Police via the Home | Northamptonshire Police (northants.police.uk) or alternatively by dialling 101. Please remember if there is a crime in progress or someone’s life is in danger dial 999.

Local Priority Issues
We regularly speak to local residents to establish what issues they may be experiencing in their area. We set up to three local priorities for each policing area three times a year. These are based on local crime statistics, information from partner agencies and feedback from the community via our local priorities survey.
The word cloud below represents the issues that local residents have recently highlighted in the survey as priorities for their area (including some that say "I have no issues").
Word clouds are graphical representations of word frequency that give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently. The larger the word in the visual below the more common the word was in the survey.
Your feedback is important and the more we get, the better we can understand and deal with the issues raised. Please click on the button below to have your say on local issues. Please do share your feedback every few months so we can be sure we have your currentviews.
