There are two relevant laws that deal with this sort of thing.
The Protection from Harassment Act 1997 and the Public Order Act 1986.
The threshold is very low BUT the Police don't like getting involved.
The trick is to treat it like a complaint where you keep going up the chain of command. You are very likely to find a middle ranking/senior officer who will be sufficiently concerned about negative publicity to do something.
Always keep records and write to the Police at each turn- Constable, Inspector, Superintendant or whatever the chain is where you are.
