Hounslow South

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.

Hounslow South 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 HounslowSouth@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
Drugs and Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) – Gainsborough Gardens Issued 26 October 2026	Gainsborough Gardens has experienced significant and persistent anti-social behaviour and suspected drug-related activity since the beginning of the year, involving multiple vehicles believed to be linked to the supply of controlled drugs. These incidents have occurred on a near-nightly basis, negatively affecting the quality of life of local residents. In response, officers have worked collaboratively with neighbouring ward teams to create a dedicated operation aimed at tackling the issue through a coordinated approach. This has included consistent and robust high-visibility patrols in the affected area, proactive enforcement activity, intelligence gathering and submission, and regular engagement with local residents to identify concerns, provide reassurance, and disrupt those involved in criminality. The operation remains ongoing with the objective of reducing and preventing anti-social behaviour and drug-related activity within the community. Actioned 28 September 2026
Robberies Issued 20 July 2026	On Glen Walk, Isleworth, and within the surrounding vicinity, there have been a number of both attempted and confirmed knifepoint robberies reported over recent months. This has been identified as a significant community safety concern and a ward priority problem, resulting in the creation of a PMP to effectively manage and address the issue. The objective is to reduce offending, mitigate the impact of these crimes on local residents and businesses, and increase public confidence. This will be achieved through the gathering and recording of intelligence, targeted proactive policing activity, high-visibility uniform patrols, plain-clothes operations in key locations and at peak times, and ongoing engagement with the community to provide reassurance and encourage the reporting of crime and suspicious activity. Actioned 28 September 2026
Violence against Women and Girls Issued 20 July 2026	Patrols are being conducted in areas of concern reported either directly to the police or via StreetSafe. These locations are typically routes used by residents when commuting to and from home, such as alleyways that lack adequate lighting, CCTV coverage, or other safety measures. Given the number of robberies reported in the Glen Walk area, there are understandable concerns regarding personal safety. In response, we provide as much high-visibility patrol presence as possible at each location that has been brought to our attention. Actioned 28 September 2026
