West Dunbartonshire
West Dunbartonshire is one of three command areas in Argyll & West Dunbartonshire
Priorities
The priorities for your area are decided by data from our strategic assessment which details threats and risks, and also from feedback from local authorities, partners, and residents in the Your Police survey.
- Drug dealing / drug misuse
- Antisocial behaviour / disorder
- Violent crime
- Homes being broken into
- Child abuse including child sexual exploitation.
You can read more information about how these priorities are decided and how officers work with the local council and partners to improve your community and address these issues in the West Dunbartonshire Local Policing Plan (Easy Read PDF version).
