Rural Crime Action Week

Rural Crime Action Week: Protecting Cambridgeshire’s Countryside

Cambridgeshire’s countryside may look peaceful — but behind the quiet lanes and open fields, rural crime continues to impact farmers, landowners, and communities.

From machinery theft and hare coursing to fly-tipping and livestock attacks, these crimes leave lasting damage. But Cambridgeshire Police, through our dedicated Rural Crime Action Team (RCAT), is working hard to tackle the issue head-on.

Throughout Rural Crime Action Week, we’re highlighting:

  • The hidden cost of rural crime
  • Cross-border policing efforts
  • Community-led resilience
  • New legislation and funding to strengthen our response

👮‍♂️ RCAT officers are specially trained to patrol farmland, investigate rural-specific offences, and collaborate with neighbouring forces.
👥 Communities are stepping up too — with WhatsApp alerts, watch groups, and shared security measures.

Together, we’re sending a clear message: rural Cambridgeshire is not alone.

📞Help us protect our countryside. If you see something suspicious, report it via 101 or online:

You can find out more about rural crime on our website.

Kind Regards,
Sergeant Tom Nuttall
