Green Spaces in Monks Orchard – Long Lane Wood

Read about the history of Long Lane Wood and the work being done there for the Great North Wood Project in the second of our three-part series on Green Spaces in Monks Orchard.

Shirley North Safer Neighbourhood Team Update

We have had a busy few shifts including searching six people for drugs and giving one of these a community resolution (like a formal warning) for the cannabis found on him.

Our current cannabis hotspots seem to be Woodmere Avenue and Tower View so we are patrolling these a number of times each shift and sending people on their way.

If there are any areas that you are aware of being regularly used by cannabis smokers/other drug users, please let us know and we will make sure that we go there when we can.

Please continue to be sensible during lockdown and enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Report crime by calling 101 or in an emergency call 999.
Remember, you can also report crime online on our website: https://www.met.police.uk/
