This priority is aimed at reducing the street robberies in and around the Winstanley Estate area. In particular, any streets or public greens such as York Gardens which serve as a thoroughfare for commuters egressing from Clapham Junction who may find themselves as victims of personal robbery, in particular during the hours of darkness later in the year.
Ongoing patrols where our late turn shifts allow serve as a good point to deal with this.
In addition, utilising support from other resources and teams such as the new Neighbourhood Tasking Team, and the Territorial Support Group will assist us in dealing with such issues.

In keeping with the summer crime plan officers from your ward will conduct high Visibility patrols of public greens such as York Gardens in support of Parks Police, DWO’s will conduct community events offering crime prevention advice to residents in conjunction with partner agencies, such as the local council. This will be measured by way of reduction in crime reports and public reassurance.

Across the Falconbrook Ward, we have a large problem with Anti-Social Behaviour where Drugs are the precursor.
This is not bespoken to one particular area of our ward, instead it is found to exist in multiple areas across the BCU
DWO’s will map out each crime using Met Insights / PlanWeb, and using this data, we will be able to work out hotspots and as such, co-ordinate patrols effectively.
When at each hotspot, and circumstance permitting, officers will make good use of Stop and Search, and where applicable, good use of the information sharing agreement with the council may assist in dealing with those most troublesome.
ASB comes in many form - such as, noise disturbances from addresses engaged in drug dealing, loitering in and around these areas thus putting neighbours in fear of harm, urination / defecation in stairwells and other public access areas of buildings, graffiti. The list is non exhaustive.
Where we identify addresses that are causing ASB issues and where drugs are the nucleus, we can use ASB powers to good use - such as Closure Orders under Section 80 of the ASB Act of 2014.

As part of our Summer Crime plan you will see your ward officer carrying out high visibility patrols to the locations identified through intelligence led policing to deter those committing Anti-Social Behaviour. Utilising Anti-Social Behaviour legislation to issue ASN warnings, Community Protection warnings and Community Protection Notices when appropriate. Utilising stop and search powers where appropriate, monitoring this by way of arrests made, and reduction in crime

The involvement of weapons particularly knives when offenders are committing crime within the ward is a concern raised by the community. Utilising various methods including the use of stop and search and proactive officers we aim to reduce this.

By Gathering valuable intelligence and using this to direct our patrols strategy accordingly officers will identify locations for patrols and potential offenders. High visibility patrols and promoting of crime prevention through social media and engagement within the community.
