Local Priorities Shoplifting Update

I wanted to provide you an update regarding Shoplifting, which members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the Met Engage priority survey.

Dear Residents,

Good news two female and one male prolific shoplifters of Cooperative at Longwood Gardens were arrested by our colleague SNT safer neighborhood team Clayhall.

Clayhall and Barkingside SNT working collaboratively together and it is well deserved belongs to Clayhall officers big thank you,

Cooperative at Longwood Garden is on the other side Barkingside ward and therefore it is good news to share with Barkingside ward residents here at met Engagement ,

Shoplifters should be by now at custody cells,

Kindest Regards

Shoplifting is a crime that can have a substantial negative impact on local businesses across London. If you notice anything suspicious or witness anyone shoplifting, please report it as soon as possible. These reports are invaluable in letting us build a picture of when and where shop lifters operate, meaning we can be in the right place at the right time to arrest those responsible.
