Cambridgeshire police have named vehicle-related anti-social behaviour in Chatteris town centre as a priority. We help local businesses deter it with patrols, monitored CCTV and alarm response across Fenland.
Trusted Protection in Chatteris
The neighbourhood team covering Chatteris has set two clear aims for July to September 2026: tackle vehicle-related anti-social behaviour and traffic offences in the town centres of Chatteris, March and Whittlesey, and disrupt drug activity. For businesses that means car parks, yards and frontages that attract unwanted use after hours. Our SIA-licensed officers patrol those spaces, check locks and lighting, and report each visit through GPS book-on and our 24/7 control room.
Chatteris Business Profile
Fenland has 3,665 registered businesses. Construction is the biggest group at 725, then professional services at 380 and agriculture at 330. Farming makes up 9.0% of firms, twice the 4.5% figure for Great Britain, which favours rural mobile patrols and solar CCTV towers. Seven construction sites are mapped within 5km, and each one needs plant and materials protected once work stops.
Transport and logistics is the other sector that runs ahead of the national picture, at 7.6% of local firms against 4.3%. Hauliers and storage operators usually need gatehouse control, yard checks and warehouse guarding. Officers we book from our network are BS 7858 vetted, paid through PAYE and tracked by our control room, so you receive a clear record of every shift.

Security Requirements in Chatteris
Within 5km are Honeysome Industrial Estate, Curf Farm Business Park, the Rowells Transport site and the Mepal CHP plant, along with Doddington Community Hospital. There are six pubs and bars nearby. No retail park is listed nearby, so the commercial picture is weighted towards industry, transport and energy.
Sites like these can draw vehicle nuisance and theft once staff leave. Barrier checks, lighting, monitored cameras and patrols at unpredictable times make a site less inviting, and key holding means alarms are answered without calling the owner out.
