Welcome to Safer Neighbourhoods

Safer Neighbourhoods teams are dedicated to your community and are additional to other policing teams and units in London. If you have concerns about day-to-day crime and disorder issues, or if you would like to get involved, please contact your local team.

  • A team of officers dedicated to every London neighbourhood
  • A more accessible, more visible, more accountable police service
  • Local communities getting a real say in deciding the priorities for the area in which they live, allowing the police to provide long-term, local solutions to local problems while maintaining a focus on reducing priority crime
  • Find out more about Safer Neighbourhoods

Future of Safer Neighbourhoods

Following our review of Safer Neighbourhoods across London, we will be making a number of small changes that will ensure we continue to deliver an effective neighbourhood policing service that responds to the needs of the local community. Read more about the July 2011 review here.

Safer Neighbourhoods 'Shared Supervision'

The new arrangements for Safer Neighbourhoods Teams (SNTs) that will involve some wards sharing supervision from sergeants have now been agreed.

This follows the decision to reduce Safer Neighbourhoods Sergeant posts by 150 in 2011/12 following a review of SNTs by the Territorial Policing (TP) Development Programme.
