Violence against Women and Girls - High st Barnet.

The team are committed to making High Barnet a safe place for Women and Girls to live, work and visit.

We are currently undertaking a detailed analysis of this crime type in order to develop a tailored strategy to acheive sustainable crime reduction

Police are aware of an increase in theft person offences. These offences are seen across the borough of Barnet, but there is a hotspot area around High St Barnet. Your local policing team will work to ensure that these offences are reduced within High Barnet

The team are analysing a wide range of data sources and speaking to members of the community in order to identify the best tactics to combat this crime type.

The ward panel highlighted ongoing concerns around anti-social behaviour in Barnet High st. This included public space drug crime, street drinking and organised begging

The team have already made good headway in reducing incidences of begging from last quarter's priorities. We will build on this as well as coordinating with a wide range of partners to reduce ASB across the ward.
