Vehicle anti-social behaviour on Hessle Foreshore, trouble at King George V Playing Fields and e-scooters on public roads are the Hessle police team's stated concerns. Our patrols and licensed officers help businesses deal with each.
Trusted Protection in Hessle
Humberside Police have set three priorities for Hessle, and all of them involve people gathering or riding where they shouldn't. Vehicle nuisance on the Foreshore affects car parks and premises near the water, the playing fields draw groups in the evening, and e-scooters and off-road electric bikes cause problems on roads. For a business, that means irregular mobile patrols, CCTV coverage of open ground and alarm escalation through our 24/7 control room.
