StreetSafe

It came to notice a few days ago that many residents, especially females, do not feel safe when outside.

The StreetSafe website ( www.police.uk/streetsafe ) allows anyone to record areas where they don't feel safe.  This will help police and partner agencies make the streets safer for everyone, particularly women and girls.

You may have felt unsafe due to environmental factors like lack of street lighting, abandoned buildings, vandalism or perhaps you have been followed or verbally abused.

Your information could help police and partner agencies to pinpoint problem areas and make changes which could include installing CCTV, street-lighting or introducing night time patrols.

Please note:  StreetSafe is not for reporting crime or incidents.

To report a crime, please visit www.met.police.uk or dial 101.  In an emergency, always dial 999.
