Middle Park & Horn Park

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.

Middle Park & Horn Park 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 MiddlePark&HornPark@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
There are a high number of e-scooters and e-bikes travelling around the ward. They are often being ridden at speed and without regard for others members of the public's safety. These vehicles are being ridden without insurance and not in accordance with a driving licence. Issued 14 October 2025	My teams have been unrelentingly targeting criminals using two wheeled transport to commit their crimes. A significant amount of arrests/seizures and fines have been given since the priority came to light. My teams are now leading the charge in running operations involving our partner agencies aimed at combatting the criminality and anti-social behaviour committed by the riders. As part of the multi agency approach, officers are following up the arrests and seizures/destruction of the vehicles with our partners to ensure that the fullest amount of disruption is caused for any further usage of other vehicles. Community protection notices, warnings and ASB interventions are put in place ensuring that the safety of the area is improved long into the future as well as hitting the criminals in the pockets. Your local team will continue to drive down these offences getting the results that you have asked for. Actioned 14 January 2026
Drugs. Issued 14 October 2025	My officers have worked hard to combat and frustrate any drug activity in the area. The use of stop and search has increased and positive results have increased dramatically with the use of precision data informing the patrols. The stance for drugs is zero-tolerance and every caught offender has been appropriately dealt with. Those that engage are appropriately referred for support and any dealing/supply is being tackled robustly. My officers will continue to drive down the use and supply of drugs in the area seeking the strongest possible prosecutions. You can help us by reporting any incidents directly to us or by reporting online at https://crimestoppers-uk.org/ - using crime stoppers guarantees your anonymity. Actioned 14 January 2026
Reports of robberies in and around the Middle park area. Issued 14 October 2025	My officers have continued to employ high-visibility patrols in the problem areas, and utilise stop and search where necessary. I am pleased to report that there has been a downward trend in reported robberies since this was highlighted as a local priority and in the last quarter there have been no reported robberies. Patrols and disruption tactics will continue over the winter months. Actioned 14 January 2026
