Current priorities
Burglary S: To reduce residential burglary offences in the streets between Kensington Church Street and Campden Hill Road. M: Measured by the number of such crimes reported to police in these areas. A: This can be achieved by high-visibility foot and cycle patrols, targeted use of stop and search tactics, and target hardening through crime prevention advice via social media and face-to-face community engagement events. R: This number of these type of offences has risen over the summer months. Historically this type of crime tends to increase in the months leading up to Christmas, and also as the weather becomes warmer and windows are left open. T: This will be measured and reviewed at the next WP meeting (every three months).
Officers have been conducting hi-visibility patrols as well as community engagements to reduce burglary offences on the ward. - Regular patrols in hotspot areas - Talking to residence who have been a victim of burglaries regarding words of advice in the future and safeguarding. - Talking to business owners, pub/café/shop staff about the goings on in the area as they are there all day every day and often have valuable intel. - Constant contact between the safer business networks and street bobbies
Set: 2026-06-29
Dangerous/anti-social cycling S: To target dangerous/antisocial cycling on pavements on/around Kensington High Street and Holland Park Avenue. M: Measured by number of fixed penalty notices issued, as well as anecdotal evidence seen by officers, WP members and local residents. A: This can be achieved by joint operations with neighbouring wards targeting antisocial cyclists with education and enforcement, as well as use of social media to educate and inform the local public about traffic legislation. R: This has been flagged up as a concern by WP members across the whole cluster for a number of months. T: This will be measured and reviewed at the next WP meeting (every three months).
