Current Priorities
Issue
Prevention of violent offending by known emerging young offenders.
Action
Early enforcement, intervention and diversion in partnership with local partner agencies and schools.
Specific – Deliver school talks/engagement around serious violence affecting young people, and more general crime prevention. Partner with Safer Schools Officers and other agencies such as Fearless. Hotspot high visibility and plain clothed patrols.
Measurable – Measured through youth engagement.
Achievable through partnership work and sharing of resources. Utilise working relationship formed by SSO at specific schools.
Relevant due to force and national priorities around prevention, early intervention and child first approach.
Timely – To be completed in next three months.
Issue
Develop a robust partnership approach between policing and all local retailers to tackle and reduce retail crime.
Action
Work in collaboration with local businesses to assist investigations, deliver effective crime prevention advice and foster a community in which staff members are safeguarded and protected.
S – Perform targeted patrols and operation around retail crime.
M- Measured through attendance and engagement with police, crime prevention programmes and other local businesses. Measured by crime statistics and offenders prosecuted
A – Achievable through resources available – local team, support and co-deliverance with ward panel chair, linking in with Merton Chamber of Commerce.
R – Relevant due to rise in retail crime both locally, and in line with both force and national priority.
T – Forum will be developed over a longer period of time, but engagement with businesses means that the implementation should be relatively quick.
Issue
Reviewing and investigating ASB reports, whilst devising strategies to implement a problem-solving approach to reducing recurring local issues over the longer term.
Action
Targeted patrols around the High St, Rainbow Industrial Estate and hotspot areas and engaging with young people and local residents to develop ideas and solutions to reduce anti-social behaviour.
S – Regular checks of Ward Overnights and regular meetings with partner teams and external organisations to intervene and prevent recurring local issues relating to ASB.
M – Measured through reviewing crime reports, calls made to police.
A – Achievable through team resources and collaboration where appropriate with partner organisations.
R – Relative to slight increase and community concerns around ASB in ward.
T – Ongoing management. Will be reviewed monthly by team and prioritised due to risk.
