The best way to deal with crime is to prevent it from happening. We want to make Royal Greenwich a safer place for residents, businesses and visitors alike.

Our crime prevention measures include:

• CCTV
• police powers to stop people drinking alcohol in public places in order to stop or prevent anti-social behaviour
• dispersal zones
• Safer Neighbourhoods policing teams.

What we can do together

Community measures to combat crime include:

• Neighbourhood Watch (Our Watch website)
• alley gating.
