- Proactive patrols to reduce / detect offences relating to vehicle crime
- Proactive patrols to respond to robberies on those roads adjacent to the Kilburn High Road / Queen’s Park Ward.
- Responding to anti-social behaviour, specifically the increase in aggressive begging in the Queen’s Park Ward
- Responding to anti-social behaviour, specifically associated with Mapes House
Queen’s Park Safer Neighbourhood Team (January 2019)
The Queen’s Park Local Policing Team (Safer Neighbourhood Team) is a group of Met police officers dedicated to serving the Queen’s Park community. The team is made up of officers based in our area (or ‘ward’), supported by additional officers from the wider area.
They work closely with local authorities, community leaders and residents to decide our policing priorities for the area. This helps them to find useful, long-term solutions to local problems, while maintaining a wider focus on reducing crime across London.

How to report a crime
- If you’ve witnessed or been the victim of crime, you can report it online. The range of issues you can report online include: road traffic accidents, missing persons, antisocial behaviour, fraud, lost or stolen vehicles, lost or found property and civil disputes.
- You can report a crime at a front counter of a 24-hour police station. As the police station on Salusbury Road is no longer open to the public, the nearest 24-hour police station is Shepherds Bush Police Station, 252 Uxbridge Road, London, W12 7JA.
- You can call 999. Does it feel like the situation could get heated or violent very soon? Is someone in immediate danger? Do you need support right away? If so, please call 999 now
- You can call 101. You should call 101 to report crime and other concerns that do not require an emergency response. For example:
- if your property has been damaged
- if your car has been stolen
- if you suspect drug use or dealing in your neighbourhood
- to give the police information about crime in your area
- to speak to the police about a general enquiry
- If you see a crime, such as drug dealing, being committed again, report it again, don’t rely on it having been reported. The Police use the number of crime reports to allocate resources.
You should always call 999 when it is an emergency, such as when a crime is in progress, someone suspected of a crime is nearby, when there is danger to life or when violence is being used or threatened.
