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.

Roxbourne 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 Roxbourne@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
ASB Issued 12 October 2026	The local team will prioritise anti-social behaviour. This covers a wide range of issues including, Youths loitering in and around Eastcote Lane / Kings Road, littering, spitting, breaches of the public space protection order and noise issues. The local ward team will triage allegations of ASB in the community which are reported to police. The team will work with APCOA and ensure coverage of the ward when the ward team are not on duty is maximised using these other resources to address these concerns. Persons identified as causing ASB will be engaged with and where the evidence supports, issued with prohibitions under community protection legislation to address these behaviours. The police will continue to refer incidents of tipping to the local authority and assist where necessary in progressing their investigations into these offences. This will be measured by collating the number of ASB allegations which are made to police and the relevant interventions that are introduced by police. The ward team are actively involved in reducing ASB as part of our core duties and therefore with some intensification, this should be achievable DWOs and PCSO to patrol the area and deal with issues accordingly (issuing Community Protection Warnings to whom it applies).
