Op Rally

Hi Resident 

On Wednesday 17th June, Hyndburn Neighbourhood Officers conducted another Operation Rally across central areas (Peel, Barnfield, Baxenden, Church, Milnshaw & Huncoat).

Activities centred around community engagement opportunities 🤝, with a number of ‘Meet Your Police Officer’ events and Mobile Police Station locations 🚐 available for the public to speak directly with officers. These were held at Wellington Street, Bolton Avenue, Manchester Road, Banbury Avenue, and Burnley Road 📍.

The Mobile Police Station was based at Wellington Street in the morning 🌅, before relocating to the playing fields on Bolton Avenue, Huncoat in the afternoon 🌇.

Residents also had opportunities throughout the day to discuss concerns at key community locations, including:

Officers additionally attended Oakhill Park 🌳, providing bicycle marking services 🚲 for anyone wishing to protect their property.

Thank you to everyone who attended, shared information, and raised concerns. Locations are announced in advance via Lancashire Talking / In the Know. You can have your say and receive alerts 📢 by registering here:

Advice was given, and drivers were encouraged to move on safely.

🚶‍♂️ Local foot patrols were conducted in areas highlighted for anti-social behaviour (ASB) during the evenings, supported by an ASB response vehicle 🚓 covering all areas of Hyndburn.

🤝 In addition, we were supported by Hyndburn Borough Council and a local councillor, with the Waste Service Department ♻️ carrying out a community clean-up alongside volunteer support.
