Your Neighbourhood Inspector

Your Neighbourhood Inspector My name is Paul Harrison and I am the neighbourhood inspector for the Peterlee area. Along with my neighbourhood policing teams I work out of the main station on St Aidans Way.

We have a unique set up here at Peterlee as police officers, PCSOs and community wardens are all located under one roof. This allows our teams to provide a timely, effective and citizen focussed response to community issues.
