Ilford Town, Redbridge

Current local priorities

• Ilford town ward and areas leading off from Ilford Town Centre will have more visible patrols, target hardening advice via face to face and leafleting. Stop/search, zero tolerance and robust plain clothes patrolling. CPA stall to continue for VAWG. Officers have completed lots of VAWG stalls in Ilford high road and we have carried out walk and talk.
• Reduce offences involving theft of/from person, including mobile phone theft, jewellery theft, wallet theft and bank follow-off offences, through proactive policing, crime prevention and community engagement.
• Reduce anti-social behaviour, drug dealing and drug use in and around the alleyway near Azad Food Store through targeted patrols, enforcement and partnership working, ensuring the area is safer for residents, businesses and visitors.
