Welcome to Met Engage,

We're transforming the Met to become a service that truly delivers for you.

Through our new platform Met Engage you can get to know your local officers, help shape how we police your local area and have direct access to key information and advice.

This isn't just a platform for us to tell you what we're doing in your area, it's an opportunity for you to tell us what's concerning you most so we can take action on the things that truly matter to you.

Dulwich Hill 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.

To contact to your team about local policing issues, email us at DulwichHill@contact.metengage.co.uk or pick an officer to email below. (Please do not use this contact method to report crime, in an emergency always call 999 or you can report crime online at www.met.police.uk or dial 101).

Local Priority Issues

We are committed to tackling the issues that matter most to local communities. Based on our conversations with residents, and the issues they have raised with us, our main priorities are:

Priority Action taken

Anti-social Behaviour linked to the use and selling of controlled substances, particularly around Marcus Garvey Mews, Dawson Heights and regualr shoplifters targeting shops on the ward.

Issued 16 October 2026

Officers are working with housing officers, residents and local shop staff to get information / intelligence to support police action.

These areas are being regularly patrolled and monitored.

Actioned 30 October 2027

Concerns regarding road safety with vehicles speeding and driving inconsiderately around Friern Road and Barry Road.

Issued 16 October 2026

Officers are to utilise traffic operations to enforce speeding, in identified hotspots, such as on Barry Road. Officers have identified areas known for vehicle crime and stolen cars being abandoned, officers will continue to patrol areas known for vehicle crime.

Actioned 30 January 2027

Offences of shoplifting at Co-Op and Sainsburys. Dealing with both those perpetrating offences within retail venues and those assisting them.

Issued 16 October 2026

The team will prioritise working with retail venues to ensure there are processes in place to streamline reporting and evidence gathering, ensuring those venues are aware of the level of detail required to investigate. We will make all attempts to identify suspects and where those are repeat offenders, build cases to work toward the best results from prosecutions. The team will also use all powers under the Antisocial Behaviour Act to deal with those individuals who may be assisting offenders outside of venues.

Actioned 30 January 2027

The word cloud below represents the issues raised by residents through their Local Matters survey. We take this into consideration along with discussions with stakeholders, ward panel meetings and conversations with the public when setting our key priorities
