Laycock

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.

Laycock 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.

To contact to your team about local policing issues, email us at Laycock@contact.metengage.co.uk or pick an officer to email below. (Please do not use this contact method to report crime, in an emergency always call 999 or you can report crime online at www.met.police.uk or dial 101).

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

Ward Priority #1 - Highbury Corner has a large amount of offences associated with it. These include theft, robbery, ASB and drug use. The Local Ward Panel has deemed this an area of priority.
There is an enormous amount of through traffic which results in thefts and robberies. An increased presence will detract and deter such offenders from coming to this area to commit crime.

Issued 22 January 2026

No action

Ward Priority #2 - Arundel Square and Paradise Park Open Spaces - Drug use and Violence against Women and Girls.
Residents have highlighted that they see both drug dealing and drug use at various hours of the day.
In the winter months residents highlight concerns with lighting and feeling unsafe.

Issued 22 January 2026

No action

Ward Priority #3 - Court Gardens - At the recent ward panel meeting residents highlighted an increase ASB and Drug use.
This includes fans on match day causing ASB. Due to the large number of reports at this location it will become a priority area

Issued 22 January 2026
