South East
South East is one of four area commands in the Edinburgh division.
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.
- Addressing violence
- Reducing drug harm and targeting supply
- Tackling housebreaking and crimes of theft and dishonesty
- Dealing with disorder and antisocial behaviour
- Making our roads safer.
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 Edinburgh Local Police Plan (Easy Read PDF version).
Area Commander and localities
Chief Inspector Mark Hamilton is the local area commander in charge of the response officers, community officers, and officers from the criminal investigation department working in the individual localities. They all respond to calls in the area and deal with local issues. You can email the Community Policing Team for City Centre and the other wards below.
You can also follow your local teams on Twitter where we post about how we are policing your community.
Please note the emails and social media channels are not monitored 24/7, and are not for reporting crime.
