| Sgt Dominic Taylor from our Safer Neighbourhood Team presented this new Police Initiative at the association AGM on the 14th May. Solving car crime is one of their key objectives. They then answered questions in a lively debate with local residents. |
The Safer Neighbourhoods (SN) for the Forest Hill Ward currently comprise of three police officers (PS Dominic Taylor, PC Tom Furey, and PC Joff Coupe), and two Police Community Support Officers, based at Sydenham Police Station. We are in addition to other police units and, as your local team, will not be taken away from that area for other duties: we are here to work solely with you, in the community, to increase public reassurance and help make people feel safer within their neighbourhood. The SN programme has the backing of the GLA and the MPA, and is being led from the very top of the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS). It is the most important growth programme in the MPS, and the Commissioner has explicitly stated that it is his ambition for the Service. This represents a major change in the style of policing for London, and affords local communities a real opportunity to influence the policing of their area. We can be contacted on 24 hour answerphone (8284 5225), but of course call 999 for anything that needs urgent police attendance. |
