Local Priorities Violence against women and girls Message

I wanted to provide an update regarding Violence against women and girls, which members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the Met Engage priority survey.

Your Safer Neighbourhood Team targeted patrols around Sutcliffe Park, Pegler Square, Weigall Road and surrounding areas for anti-social behaviour including drug dealing and drug consumption, shoplifting and VAWG. This is still an ongoing issue that we take very seriously, and we will continue to target over the coming weeks by undertaking proactive high-visibility and plain clothes patrols.

 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.
