Violence Related Priority

Violence and ASB - Triangle Passage, Barnet, EN5 has been identified by both the members of the CAP, the community and officers as a priority area. The impact of anti-social behaviour as well as violence and retail theft in this area has left members of the community afraid to use this area. We will work to significantly reduce this and reclaim this space for all members of the community

ASB and Drugs - LEICESTER ROAD, Barnet, EN5
