I wanted to provide you an update regarding robbery, which some members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the Met Engage priority survey. How we are tackling e-bike crime in Golders Green
Over the last few months, we have been talking to Londoners at our community crime fighting events, to better understand exactly what issues you care about most, including here in Golders Green.
Across London, including in Golders Green we heard of widespread concerns about dangerous riding, anti-social behaviour and thefts linked to e-bikes and e-scooters.
So, we are stepping up our action.
In the past year, we have taken over 2,500 illegal and unsafe e-bikes and e-vehicles off London’s streets. Through precision-led policing driven by intelligence, data and technology, we are seizing thousands of dangerous rides where they’re being used unlawfully or anti-socially.
We are working with partners to develop evidence-based, targeted interventions and operations that will lead to effective, long-term change.
Acting on concerns that matter most to Londoners is at the heart of our community crime-fighting – and so we need your input.

We would appreciate hearing from you to help us better understand both the concerns and benefits of e-bikes and e-scooters use in your area. This will help us understand what you would like us to prioritise and give us insight to take to partners and drive action.
 We will continue to tackle robbery in your local area. While we are investigating and arresting those responsible, please consider following the below advice to keep yourself and your property safe: Do not leave your phone, tablet or other digital goods unattended, out of sight or on a table. Be aware of your surroundings and only use your phone when it is safe to do so. Put your phone away when you have finished using it. Secure your phone by choosing a strong pin or password Keep a note of your IMEU number (to access, type *#06# on your phone keypad) Plan your route, especially if you are going somewhere you have not been before. Keep to busy, well-lit streets and walkways. Move with purpose and appear confident.
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.
