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.
Cricket Green 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 CricketGreen@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 |
|---|---|
|
Serious Youth Violence / ASB Issued 17 November 2025 |
This will continue to be one of our priority and will encompass the reports of ASB that is the top concern of residents of the ward at the moment. Our aim will be to drive down ASB reports whilst trying to keep the reductions in violent crime down. Actioned 17 November 2025 |
|
Drug Dealing Issued 17 November 2025 |
Given the large increase of offences compared to last year, it being in the top 3 crimes residents are concerned about and the fact that we already have an operation focusing on trying to tackle drug importation and supply across the ward. The panel agreed that this should be a priority. Actioned 17 November 2025 |
|
Criminal Damge Issued 17 November 2025 |
The panel wanted the local team to focus on Criminal Damage for this quarter as the burglaries are typically happening overnight and the panel felt that they would want their local ward team out during times they should be seen. There is also hopefully a bit more impact that we as a Safer Neighbourhood Team can do to help reduce this crime type. Actioned 17 November 2025 |
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
