Local Priorities Violent crime Message

I wanted to provide you an update regarding Violent crime, which members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the Met Engage priority survey.

We are aware of the shocking and appalling attack that has taken place today in Manchester. On the holiest of days in the Jewish Calendar, Yom Kippur, this is truly distressing. I want to reassure the Jewish community and residents of both Newham & Waltham Forest that there is a policing plan in place for the High Holy days and you will see an increased policing presence at our synagogues.

 We are working on our brand-new strategy for how we police London and we want your help. Our New Met for London: Phase 2 strategy will guide how we deliver on behalf of Londoners over the next three years.
