High Street North Anti Social Behaviour

High Street North Anti Social Behaviour

Here’s a quick update on anti-social behaviour locally. We know it can be distressing, but we’re working closely with partners to make the area safer and support residents. 
 

We would like to sincerely apologise to East Ham residents that have encountered disruption and frustration caused by recent late night antisocial behaviour. Preventing Anti-social behaviour is a priority for the police and we fully recognise the impact that it can have on individuals, families, and the wider community, when we don’t get this right.

To help ensure that East Ham remains a safe and welcoming place for everyone to live, work, and enjoy, we have increased police visibility and are working closely with the London Borough of Newham's Community Safety teams and Environmental Health teams. This collaborative approach is helping us to better understand the issues affecting the community and identify appropriate and proportional actions to resolve them.

Our Neighbourhood Policing Teams will be working a varied shift pattern to maximise visibility and ensure a consistent presence during the times when residents are most affected. By working together with residents, community groups, and local partners, we are committed to addressing the concerns raised, preventing further incidents, and helping to ensure that East Ham remains a safe and inclusive place for everyone.

Across London we’ve put hundreds more officers on the frontlines of community crime-fighting teams, upping visible patrols in the right ‘hot spots’ so we can deter and catch criminals - including with new tech like live facial recognition cameras, drones and e-bikes. 

Antisocial behaviour can come in many forms and can require support from more organisations than just the police. A full list of what we categorise as antisocial behaviour is available on our website.
