Shirley North Safer Neighbourhood Team Update – March 2021

There has been a lot of changes to teams and the police station recently. We hope everyone is well and continue to keep safe.

We are starting off this little update with good news! Crimes in Shirley North have gone down! The first graph below shows the total number of offences (TNO) from the last year. If you look you will be able to see from the beginning of 2021 to now we can see a decrease in offences.

Thefts from motor vehicles have been a recent problem in our ward, especially catalytic converters being popular. The graph of Offences for Theft from a Motor Vehicle shows that reports each month have stayed the same since December. Now that we have a dedicated team for this type of crime and police presence we are hoping this number will lessen.

In light of recent events which I am sure you are all aware of, Safer Neighbourhood Teams (SNT’s) have been asked to send out a few questions to residents and any feedback is very much appreciated. The questions are below:

  • What are your sentiments towards the Metropolitan Police Service, after the events of the last couple of weeks?
  • How much confidence do you have in the Metropolitan Police Service, after the events of the last couple of weeks?

Please send your feedback to us at SNMailbox-.ShirleyNorthSNT@met.police.uk 

Thank you in advance for your swift response to this.
