My name is PC Tom Richards and I would like to introduce myself as your new Dedicated Neighbourhood Officer (DNO) for Rooksdown, Winklebury and Buckskin. I have previously worked in Basingstoke Town Centre investigating crime and addressing issues brought forward by businesses and members of the public.

My new role involves working with residents and community partners to better understand the needs of the local area. In the coming months I will be attending public events, meetings with community leaders, and conducting proactive patrols so as to identify crime that is happening and what can be done to stop it.

If you would like to get in touch with any questions, email me at: tom.richards@hampshire.police.uk
