Your Safer Neighbourhoods Team
Your Safer Neighbourhoods Team is a group of Met police officers dedicated to serving your community. The team is made up of officers based in your area (or 'ward'), supported by additional officers from the wider area.
We work closely with local authorities, community leaders and residents to decide our policing priorities for the area. This helps us to find useful, long-term solutions to local problems, while maintaining our wider focus on reducing crime across London.
You can stay informed by signing up to MetEngage, a free messaging service that keeps you connected to what’s happening in your area. Whether its crime updates, safety advice, or news from your local policing team, you’ll get the information that matters to you when it matters most.

We are aware and dealing with robberies and phone snatches around Stoke Newington School and within Clissold Park and surrounds. We have been patrolling the streets and areas near the school at the end of the school day and into the evening on an almost daily basis. We are working alongside the schools officer and school staff to educate and make the students more safety aware, providing reassurance and advice where we can.
