Rush Green & Crowlands

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

Theft of Motor Vehicle

Issued 23 October 2026

Mobile patrols conducted local officers targeting crime hotspots. Crime prevention advice given out weekly on Met Engage and daily updates on cars stolen. Crime prevention advice always given. Cocooning of venues and evidence gathering at an early stage.

ASB

Issued 23 October 2026

Anti-Social Behaviour. Officers will conduct high visibility patrols of ASB hotspots when on duty. Particular attention will be paid to areas where there is a high number of reports, and grey spaces (underpasses, alleys, other disused or hidden areas). All reports of ASB are assigned individually to officers to investigate and progress.
