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.

Theft of pedal bikes

Focussing on reducing the amount of pedal bike thefts, mainly from near the Clissold Leisure Centre and Clissold Park surrounds.

We have carried out numerous bike marking events across both Clissold and Shacklewell wards, helping to raise safety and security awareness and the bike marking acts as a deterrent as well. Working with the staff at the leisure centre to attempt to improve bike security, and working with the community to better secure their bikes. We have been targeting the core hotspot areas and the key times with patrols, both in uniform and in plain clothes.
