Chelsea Riverside

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.

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

Youth Violence and Anti-social Behaviour:

To reduce incidents of Serious Youth Violence (SYV) and Anti-social behaviour around the World’s End Estate.

Measured by monitoring the number of ASB reports relating to the World's End Estate, and the number of crime reports/CADs relating to incidents of SYV.

This can be achieved by a combination of high-visibility patrols within the estate, targeted use of stop and search tactics, weapons sweeps and joint working with RBK&C council and private security staff, supporting applications for injunctions against repeat offenders, and use of Community Protection Warnings/Community Protection Notices where appropriate.

This is repeatedly highlighted as an issue by local residents’ groups and Ward Panel members, and has been an ongoing problem for a number of years.

This will be measured and reviewed at the next Ward Panel meeting (every three months).

Issued 06 October 2025

Key proactive high vis patrol around end of school term.

Actioned 31 January 2026

Drug Use and Drug Dealing:

To reduce drug use and drug dealing in and around the World’s End estate.

Measured by the number of drug-related ASB reports relating to these areas, the number of positive stop and searches in the area and anecdotal evidence given by Ward Panel members.

This can be achieved by high-visibility patrols, cycle patrols, targeted use of stop and search tactics, intelligence-led plain-clothes proactive patrols, engagement with residents to encourage reporting of offences/use of Crimestoppers.

This issue has been highlighted by residents and Ward Panel members recently, and also evidenced by regular positive outcomes from stop and searches carried out by ward officers.

This will be measured and reviewed at the next Ward Panel meeting (every three months).

Issued 06 October 2025

Plain clothes patrols in stairwells of towers and surrounding streets.

Actioned 31 January 2026

Vehicle Related Crime

To reduce Vehicle Related Crime

Measured by the number of such incidents reported to police in these areas.

This can be achieved by high-visibility foot and cycle patrols, targeted use of stop and search tactics, and target hardening through crime prevention advice via social media and other community engagement events, and working with RBK&C to install additional signage/CCTV on affected streets.

Over the past 3 months, vehicle crime has accounted for a large proportion of the total offences on the ward. The crime maps produced for the Ward Panel show a particular concentration of these types of offences in the LOTS VILLAGE area. This concern is shared by Ward Panel members and local residents.

This will be measured and reviewed at the next Ward Panel meeting (every three months).

Issued 06 October 2025

Proactive patrols with RBKC yellow advice leaflets

Actioned 31 January 2026

The word cloud below represents the issues raised by residents through their Local Matters survey. We take this into consideration along with discussions with stakeholders, ward panel meetings and conversations with the public when setting our key priorities
