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.

Burnt Oak 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 BurntOak@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

Youth Violence

A holistic approach to reducing youth violence. Focussing on Safeguarding and understanding the exploitative nature of this crime type.

Issued 16 July 2025

Engage with local youth services and create a joined up solution to empower young people to make positive decisions, in regards to their safety.

Use of Stop and Search is an important tool but this should be objectively legitimate, based on solid intelligence. It should also have an understanding of the impact this power has on young people and action should be taken to mitigate any negative effect.

Analysis to be completed to understand the driving force behind youth violence (Gangs, Drugs etc.) and work should be undertaken to target the route cause of the problem, rather than solely the young people, who are often coerced into this behaviour.

Actioned 16 July 2025

Anti-Social Behaviour

A reduction in the volume of Anti-Social Behaviour in the areas around WATLING AVENUE (Burnt Oak Station) and the three large parks in that area (WATLING, SILKSTREAM and MONTROSE).

Issued 16 July 2025

Continuation of Operation Woodson which has had good effect for the first few months. This good work must continue.

Actioned 16 July 2025

Shoplifting

Since the opening of Tesco and Sainsburys a sharp increase in shoplifting has occurred. This has left the staff and community feeling vulnerable. All shops in the area are experiencing high stock lost which is costing business thousands.

Issued 16 July 2025

Develop intelligence around prolific offenders

Proactively target offenders and arrest/charge them

Work with community partners to share information and improve security within the stores

Use ASB legislation and Criminal Behaviour Orders to target the most prolific offenders. Banning them from the area if necessary.

Actioned 16 July 2025

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
