Rotherham Central
Date published: 25 August 2023 17:14Welcome message from the Neighbourhood Inspector Liam Walters
I’m Inspector Liam Walters, and I head up the Rotherham Central Neighbourhood Policing Team.
We cover quite a large area, including the town centre. The areas classed as central Rotherham are Rotherham East, Rotherham West, Sitwell, Boston Castle, Keppel and Wingfield.
As the country emerges from the Covid-19 pandemic, my team’s priority will be to make sure the town centre is a welcoming and safe place to visit. We’ll be working with businesses to help them re-open, we’ll be proactively working with partners to reduce anti-social behaviour and we’ll be prioritising tackling burglary, vehicle crime and other theft.
We have a real diverse mix of communities living in this area of Rotherham and I want to make sure every community feels valued, reassured and listened to. Please say hello if you see your local officers, and contact us about any issues that matter to you.
Your local police station is:
Riverside House
Main Street, Rotherham
S60 1QY
