Inspector Kate Tomlinson
I am Kate Tomlinson the Neighbourhood Inspector for
Warrington East based at Risley Police Station. My policing
responsibilities cover the communities of Birchwood, Padgate,
Woolston, Rixton, Glazebrook, Glazebury, Culcheth, Croft and
Fearnhead.
I have been a police officer for 16 years and have worked in a
variety of roles across the county, all of which have involved
front line policing. I have worked from Risley Police Station as a
Constable early on in my career, as a Sergeant briefly and now as
an Inspector so I have experience of the community and knowledge of
the problems faced by its residents every day. I have an
investigative background and have worked as a detective at all
ranks, including roles within the Major Investigation Team. I spent
nearly 2 years working as the Staff Officer to the Chief Constable
with my most recent role as a Response Inspector covering
Warrington, Widnes and Runcorn.
My predecessor has done some excellent work in Warrington East
building effective relationships with our partners and seeing
overall crime levels fall. My intention is to continue to drive
crime levels down and work with our partners for the benefit of the
whole community. Recent changes to the way we police have meant
that response officers are being integrated into the neighbourhood
policing teams thus giving them a greater understanding of local
issues and placing them in a better position to solve problems from
the outset. Risley will have 5 teams of police officers and
community support officers each headed up by a sergeant. In support
of this we will have 3 beat managers.
The communities play such an important role in neighbourhood
policing by providing the police with information and affecting
police priorities. You are an integral part in the success of
policing at a local level and I would encourage you to tell the
police officers and PCSOs about issues concerning you. You can do
this by either speaking to your local officer or attending the
meetings we put in place in your area.
