Foot patrol (26/11/2025)

College-focused patrols took priority today with Rick and Kerry spending time around Rush Green from the late morning (6.16 miles).

Heading along Dagenham Road via The Chase, anti-social behaviour (ASB) hotspots, including the Thorntons Farm Avenue alley, Fourth Avenue (11.27am, p) and the Dagenham Road flats were checked on, followed by the Co-op.

After a loop around Lincoln Avenue and Gorseway, returns were made to the alley, Fourth Avenue, the flats (12.15pm, p) and the Co-op.

Philip (12.24pm), Horace, Legon and Thorntons Farm Avenue (12.36pm, p) were all covered, as well as Fourth Avenue. Harveys Lane, Great Cullings and Valentines Way (e12.56pm) were also visited.

In recent weeks, the small car park in Fourth Avenue located behind the shops has seen an increase in gatherings of college students. If this affects you and you're able to provide any days/times this is occurring, get in touch.
