Issued 25 September 2026

Here's an update on our work to tackle local priorities from April to June 2026:

Drug dealing and drug misuse
• We have executed multiple warrants across the area covered by the Wellingborough neighbourhood policing team, as well as using stop and search powers. This has led to the seizures of Class A and B drugs. Investigations into drug supply are ongoing.
• We carried out a day of targeted action in the Hemmingwell and Wellingborough town centre areas over the last few months where officers were deployed in plain clothes to tackle drugs offences.
• Officers have intercepted drugs that were due to be delivered in the post to the Wellingborough area.

Road safety and road traffic offences
• Officers have carried out a speed enforcement operation in the Queensway area which resulted in 11 people being issued with speeding warnings
• Multiple vehicles have been seized for having no tax by the Wellingborough neighbourhood policing team.
• Operation Tides has been launched which is dedicated to tackling the illegal use of e-bikes and e-scooters across the county, and will be running over the summer period. Officers have seized four e-scooters so far.

ASB nuisance motorcycles
• Officers have responded to multiple calls to off road motorcycles. Some have failed to stop for police and committed further offences.
• Three off road motorcycles in the Redwell area were stopped travelling to a park in the Hemmingwell area by officers. One of the bikes failed to stop, and the vehicle was seized for having no insurance. The driver was issued a traffic ticket.
• Officers recovered a stolen motorbike that was found in rural Wellingborough.
