The Hele and Pendennis beat area is within the Tormohun ward of Torquay.

The beat is predominantly made up of residential areas with a mixture of social, rented and privately owned housing.

As well as large outlets situated at Bridge Retail Park, there are also a handful of smaller convenience stores scattered around. There is a fairly big industrial estate (Woodland Business Park) where a large number of local businesses are based.  There are also a number of businesses situated along Lymington Road.

Within the area there is one secondary school (Torquay Academy) and one primary school (Barton Academy).  

Other features of the beat area are the number of community centres available to the public including The Acorn Centre, The Windmill Centre and Hele’s Angels.
