Community Event - Blackthorn Grove Community Hub

Today, officers attended a community engagement visit at Blackthorn Grove, Bexleyheath, DA7, to speak directly with local residents and gain a better understanding of any issues affecting the area. These visits provide an important opportunity for officers to listen to community concerns, identify local priorities, and work alongside residents to help keep the neighbourhood safe.

During the visit, officers engaged with members of the community, offering reassurance, discussing any concerns regarding crime and anti-social behaviour, and providing crime prevention advice where appropriate. Building positive relationships with residents is essential in helping us understand the issues that matter most locally and enables us to tailor our policing response to meet the needs of the community.

We remain committed to working with local residents and partner agencies to address concerns, prevent crime. Information provided by the public plays a vital role in helping us identify emerging issues and take positive action where necessary.

If you have any concerns about crime, anti-social behaviour, or suspicious activity in your area, please report them to us. In a non-emergency, contact 101 or report online. In an emergency, or if a crime is in progress, always call 999.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to speak with officers today.
