Campden

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.

Campden 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 Campden@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:

Gain support with partner agencies in the area and deliver awareness. Gain Intel packages on known offenders A – VAWG related events across the wards, crime prevention stands, Hi-Viz patrols, walk and talk, ask Angela in public houses, mobile patrols around transport hubs. R – Relevant There is a Met Initiative to build trust and confidence with women and girl across London There is a real potential for the loss of confidence between the police and the community and must be treated as a priority. T- To be reviewed at the next ward panel meeting. Issued 01 December 2025	VAWG related event at Notting Hill Gate to offer women and girls crime prevention advice e.g. on drink spiking, domestic abuse and staying safe Actioned 05 December 2025
Burglary S: To reduce residential burglary offences in the streets between Kensington Church Street and Campden Hill Road. M: Measured by the number of such crimes reported to police in these areas.
