Current Priorities
Issue
Violence against women and girls in and around Whitton High Street. Agreed at Police Liaison Group community meeting on 12/06/2025.
Action
Ward Officers have conducted regular targeted patrols across our community and have concentrated these patrols in the evenings and later-on, when women and girls have often reported feeling most vulnerable.
We have conducted "walk and Talks" involving female officers ‘buddying up’ with women from their communities to go out on patrol in open spaces, to discuss their experiences, concerns and reflections.
We have held numerous Awareness Stalls at several events across the community to offer advice and raise awareness on the issue of Violence against Women and Girls (VAWG).
Issue
Residential burglary. Agreed at Police Liaison Group community meeting on 12/06/2025.
Action
We will continue to visit every burglary victim and make local enquiries to secure any available evidence. We will continue to offer crime prevention advice around this crime.
Issue
ASB around Whitton High Street and parks and open spaces on the ward. Agreed at Police Liaison Group community meeting on 12/06/2025.
Action
Regular patrols are completed in and around our open spaces. We have identified peak times, increased patrols at these times and requested additional police resources when required. Anti-Social Behaviour warnings issued to offenders with legal notices to desist or be arrested issued to those found to be repeatedly causing Anti-Social Behaviour in our community.
We have conducted regular joint patrols with Richmond Council’s Park Guard officers to engage with those community members using our parks and open spaces and listen to their concerns. During these patrols we have conducted weapons sweeps and found and removed a number of discarded or hidden weapons from our community.
