Welcome to Met Engage,
We're transforming the Met to become a service that truly delivers for you.
Through our new platform Met Engage you can get to know your local officers, help shape how we police your local area and have direct access to key information and advice.
This isn't just a platform for us to tell you what we're doing in your area, it's an opportunity for you to tell us what's concerning you most so we can take action on the things that truly matter to you.
Shacklewell Safer Neighbourhoods Team
Your Safer Neighbourhoods Team is a group of Met police officers dedicated to serving your community. The team is made up of officers based in your area or 'ward', supported by additional officers from the wider area.
We work closely with local authorities, community leaders and residents to decide our policing priorities for the area. This helps us to find useful, long-term solutions to local problems, while maintaining our wider focus on reducing crime across London.

Local Priority Issues
We are committed to tackling the issues that matter most to local communities. Based on our conversations with residents, and the issues they have raised with us, our main priorities are:
| Priority | Action taken |

The local community has expressed concerns regarding the issue of robbery and phone snatches in the local area. Residents have stated that there is an issue with phone snatching taking place particularly along the A10 and Stoke Newington High Street junction with the Crossway N16. The issue appears to take place at various times of the day in which members of the public have reported their phones snatched from their hands. Issued 17 September 2025 |
The safer neighbourhood team will continue to conduct regular patrols, engaging with shops and residents to safeguard those in the area. Actioned 10 December 2025 |

Local residents have expressed concerns around ASB, drug taking and antisocial behaviour which is happening around Shacklewell Row/Hindle House/ Somerford Grove. There are a lot of reports of cars sitting idling or driving at high speed. Issued 17 September 2025 |
We will be including these area in our daily patrols and also changing our shifts to focus on the target times that this ASB is occurring. We are doing multi-agency work alongside the council to improve fencing, building access and parking restrictions. Actioned 10 December 2025 |
