City and Holbeck Division is at the heart one of Europe’s fastest growing cities and stretches to the district’s southern boundary incorporating Morley, Rothwell and surrounding villages.Leeds is a vibrant 24-hour city which is recognised as a major financial and business centre as well for its excellent shopping and nightlife.
The division covers a diverse area with a bustling business community featuring a strong and diverse economy.
Leeds is the largest financial centre outside of the capital and it has attracted a number of top class stores including 'Harvey Nichols' in Briggate.
The city centre has a massive transient population made up in the daytime of thousands of people travelling to the city to work and shop and at night time by thousands attracted to its pubs, clubs and restaurants as well as its theatres and music and entertainment venues.
City and Holbeck Division is home to one of the country’s leading teaching hospitals – Leeds General Infirmary, the renowned West Yorkshire Playhouse and the city’s football team Leeds United at its Elland Road ground. Morley, a busy market town, Rothwell and the White Rose Shopping Centre all fall within its boundaries as well as communities including Middleton, Belle Isle, Beeston, Drighlington, Gildersome and Methley.
Welcome to the Neighbourhood Policing Team website for City and Holbeck. I am Chief Supt Mark Milsom, Divisional Commander.
Recently we’ve seen huge reductions in the number of burglaries occurring in the city and south Leeds areas. Officers have been carrying out a number of dedicated initiatives in local communities to catch and deter thieves, but plenty of credit must also go to people who are being that bit extra security-conscious.
Given the weather we’ve had, it will have been more than tempting to leave windows and doors insecure. However, this can present an opportunity for criminals, and by taking the time to ensure your home is secured you can avoid becoming a victim.
I would encourage everyone to keep this up over the summer months.
You may have heard that our new Government has scrapped the Policing Pledge. However, you’ll be pleased to know that its key principles of local officers providing the first-class service you expect and being accountable to local communities is very much alive and well in City and Holbeck.
By getting involved in our community meetings you can have a direct say in the work we do, and expect to hear about our efforts to deal with these issues at the next available opportunity.
