Safer Neighbourhood Ward Panel

St Katharine and Wapping Safer Neighbourhood Ward Panel

About image

The St Katharine and Wapping Safer Neighbourhood Ward Panel was re-established in the Summer of 2017 at the request of the Police. It currently comprises 12 local volunteers and the Police SNT, (Safer Neighbourhood Team), who form an integral part of the Ward Panel.

The primary function of a Ward Panel is to understand the concerns and problems Residents have and represent them directly to the Police and Local Council. The three priority areas for the SNT to concentrate on, as decided by Residents in 2017 are: Drugs, Dangerous Driving and General Anti-Social Behaviour.

We are a local dedicated team that is focused on understanding the issues and concerns of Residents and the pursuit of initiatives to help make our community a safer place in which to live and work.

Report image
REPORTING ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR (ASB)


REPORTING TO THE METROPOLITAN POLICE

https://www.met.police.uk/ro/report/asb/asb-v3/report-antisocial-behaviour/

Alternatively, the person reporting can go to the MPS website – www.met.police.uk and follow the prompts for Reporting and Anti-social Behaviour.

Reports requiring a more urgent response should always be reported via 999. Examples are: crime currently taking place and to report threatening behaviour/robbery/muggings/attempted muggings/dangerous driving.

101 can be used for less urgent reporting of Crimes, if there is no immediate threat to a person/s or property.
It is important for residents to make the fullest use possible of these means of reporting ASB. It will give the Police and Tower Hamlets Council a clearer understanding of the true scale of the ASB issues within our Ward.

Only with consistent and disciplined reporting will resources be diverted to St Katharine & Wapping to clamp down on the escalation of ASB related issues which we are currently experiencing.
It is important to report EACH & EVERY time you are subject to a disturbance, regardless how trivial.


REPORTING TO THE LONDON BOROUGH OF TOWER HAMLETS, LBTH

https://forms.towerhamlets.gov.uk/service/report_anti_social_behaviour

Tower Hamlets Council’s online Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) web form (link above) is a one-stop means of reporting all instances of Anti-Social Behaviour

Please find guidance notes to completing a report on the LBTH ASB portal - ​ASB Reporting Guidance Notes​​​


REPORTING TO TOWER HAMLETS HOMES, THH

Only if your development/block is managed by THH, Tower Hamlets Homes can you report Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) to their dedicated team at -

THH.ASB@towerhamlets.gov.uk or 020 7364 5015, (Option 6)


THE COMMUNITY TRIGGER

The Community Trigger is the name generally applied to the Response to Complaints section of the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014. It enables victims to require agencies to carry out a review of their response to the anti-social behaviour they reported where they feel they did not get a satisfactory response. It is worth noting that the Community Trigger for LBTH can only be invoked if someone has complained 3 times in a 6 month period and feels nothing has been done.
More information can be found on the following link -

The Community Trigger Guidance Notes


REPORTING HOMELESSNESS AND ROUGH SLEEPING  

https://www.streetlink.org.uk/

Rough sleeping and homelessness is a concern for residents. Whilst this is relatively limited within our Ward this doesn’t necessarily mean that homelessness isn’t something that residents should not worry about. The homeless are often vulnerable and need assistance.
Streetlink enables residents to alert them to those sleeping rough within a location. This is the first step a resident can take to ensure that rough sleepers are connected to local services and get the support that is available to them.

VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN AND GIRLS

If you are in danger and unable to talk on the phone, call 999, and then press 55. This will transfer your call to the relevant police force who will assist you without you having to speak.
