Safer Neighbourhood Team

Safer Neighbourhoods is a truly local policing style: local people working with local police and partners to identify and tackle issues of concern in their neighbourhood.

Safer Neighbourhoods teams usually consist of one sergeant, two constables and three police community support officers (PCSOs)


They are trained to communicate with a wide range of people, communities and partners, to tackle and solve community problems. Experience suggests these are most likely to be quality-of-life issues, such as anti-social behaviour, criminal damage, abandoned cars and graffiti.

If you have concerns about day-to-day crime and disorder issues, or if you would like to get involved, please contact your local team, Thornton, on 0208 721 2622 or 07920 233 840.
The team can also be sent an email Thornton.SNT@met.police.uk

In an Emergency you should always dial 999.
The Metropolitan Police Non-Emergency Number is 0300 123 1212
