I am the Neighbourhood Policing Team Inspector for Newton Acyliffe, Sedgefield, Shildon and surrounding areas. I have worked for Durham Constabulary for 17 years in various roles within the organisation including; Response, Crime Team, Executive Office, and MOSOVO. These previous roles have helped me understand a broad perspective of our communities and how best to serve them.

My aim is to build community relationships, robustly tackle ASB and Crime, protect vulnerable people and ensure my team are visible within the community. I am fully committed to ensuring the safety of the communities and welcome working alongside our partners and residents to achieve this.

Hello, I joined the police in January 2021 and I have worked in response at Spennymoor, Bishop Auckland and Newton Aycliffe before moving onto the neighbourhood policing team at Newton Aycliffe in February 2024. I began my role as neighbourhood sergeant in May 2025 covering Newton Aycliffe and Shildon. The thing I enjoy the most about being a police officer is helping the community and trying to make a positive difference in peoples lives and problem solving. The thing I like the most about being a neighbourhood sergeant is getting to know my community and understanding the issues and working with partners and the community to create positive working relationships. One initiative which I am particularly proud of is my mental health initiative where I am working with Manhealth and Sisters of Support to work with vulnerable adults who need some extra mental health support. My hopes for being a neighbourhood sergeant is to work with the community in order to make Newton Aycliffe and Shildon a safe great place to live, work and travel to for leisure activities. I would like to say to the community that we are here for the Community of Newton Aycliffe and I am passionate about the community I work in working here for the past 4 years my team of PCSO'S and PC'S will always be here to help the however possible.

I am proud to now also cover the Shildon area which I have a knowledge of due to my time spent at Newton Aycliffe and both from working on South Response. I am looking to develop positive links within the community utilising the expertise of my experienced team who have been based at Shildon for a number of years.

Hello! I'm Andy Fox and a PC working from Shildon. I have been a Police Officer for over seven years, working mostly in Response Policing and during this time I have covered the role of Sergeant in Bishop Auckland, Newton Aycliffe and Durham City. Prior to that I worked as a PCSO in Seaham for around 18 month. I'm looking forward to getting to know the community of Shildon and working on projects to combat any issues that are present in the area.

If you see me out in the community come and say hello.

Hello! I’m Lorna a PCSO based in Shildon. I joined Durham Constabulary in July 2025. I am looking forward to engaging with the local community, listening to concerns, and working together to address current issues that matter most to residents.

I have worked for Durham Constabulary for eight years, six of which have been as a Police Community Support Officer covering the Shildon and Newton Aycliffe beat areas. I enjoy being out in the community, building strong relationships with residents, and working in partnership with local organisations to address concerns. Problem-solving is a key part of my role, and I take pride in tackling the issues I am faced with to help improve safety and quality of life for people living and working in the area.
