Leigh neighbourhood policing team

Insp Brad Dickel

For the past two years I have held the position as Neighbourhood Policing Inspector for Southend West covering Leigh, Eastwood and Westcliff. I have spent my entire 20 years service in Southend District overseeing daily policing as well as running a number of proactive teams and departments. During this time I have seen Leigh grow into the interesting and diverse place it is today. I can confidently say that Leigh is a safe and low crime area to live and my goal during my time here is for it to remain that way.

Sgt Steve Parry

I joined Essex Police in 1997, initially posted to Southend Division. I worked in various uniform roles at Southend and Leigh-on-Sea until 2006, when I transferred to the Metropolitan Police Service. In 2007 I returned to Essex Police and Southend Divison where I took up a permanent supervisory role, being promoted permanently the following year. Since then I have supervised Response Teams, Neighbourhood teams and Divisional Focus teams. Currently, I supervise the Neighbourhood Policing Team at Leigh and dedicated Youth Officers. I thoroughly enjoy working as part of a Neighbourhood Policing Team and have already been afforded the opportunity to meet my local community and external partners. I am keen to drive local inititives and continue to tackle Crime and Anti-Social behaviour.

I have worked in Southend specifically Leigh for the last 4 years. The new Neighbourhood Team has 82 years of policing experience between us and with this skills base and knowledge our job is to make our community a safe place to live and work. With your help we aim to achieve this.
