KINGSTON GATE ::: ASB/ Drug related patrols across Dale Court, Cumberland House and Kingsnympton Estate

I wanted to provide an update regarding drug dealing / drug use, which some members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the Met Engage priority survey.

Today PCSO Carby focused patrols around Dale Court, Cumberland House and Kingsnympton, with the addition of a Kingston Housing Officer and a local Councillor between the hours of 16:30- 19:15hrs.

Local children from Kingsnympton Park Estate were especially happy to see officers on the beat, wanting to assist in any way possible. PCSO Carby especially liked the comment from one teenage girl exclaiming "she's here every day". We'll continue to patrol around the estate owing to new intel of vandalism, fly-tipping and concerns of drug dealing/ taking in new locations. (If you have any information relating to activity then please do contact us.)

Cumberland House has a new block and with it a lovely new playing park, which the locals have been enjoying. Sadly we did need to conduct enquiries relating to reports of xenophobic comments and drug dealing. (Again, please contact if you have any information relating to this.)

At Dale Court, we looked into reports of noise complaints and other neighbour issues.

We are committed to tackling drug dealing wherever we find it. We will keep you updated on our efforts to do this in your area, but if you have any concerns or evidence, it is important you report this as soon as possible.  

If you ever experience this issue or have information regarding an incident, please report it using our online reporting tools at https://www.met.police.uk/, speak to an operator in our Force Communications Room via our online web chat or call the non-emergency number 101.  

Alternatively, you can stay 100% anonymous by contacting the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or via their untraceable online form at crimestoppers-uk.org.
