Issued 02 April 2026

Residents previously asked us to focus on the following issues:

Tackle anti-social behaviour in Buntingford.
• Officers from the Neighbourhood Policing Team have been conducting patrols which that focus on anti-social behaviour in Buntingford including all the parks.
• Officers have held a meeting with partner agencies to see what more can be done to tackle anti-social behaviour.
• We are continuing to carry out these patrols in the future.

Reduce incidents of hare coursing and poaching.
• The Neighbourhood Policing Team continues to conduct operations and high visibility patrols to deter and catch hare coursers and poachers, as well as anti-social use of vehicles. This has resulted in a reduction in reports.
• Residents and workers were offered advice and the opportunity to discuss any concerns with officers at a Barn Meet.
• Three men have been charged in connection with a suspected hare coursing incident in Hunsdon.
