Here's a useful explanation about Safer Neighbourhood Teams - in this case, for Palmers Green ward, but this will apply to the teams in other wards too.
Palmers Green Safer Neighbourhood Team is a team of two police officers and one police community support officer. Day to day we work with residents around reported neighbour disputes, anti-social behaviour and other quality of life issues.
We generally are not the officers investigating your reports of crime. They usually go to the officers who originally take your crime report and are officers from the team who answer the 999 and 101 calls.
We do follow up work for the officers investigating burglary (neighbour enquiries, CCTV enquries and visiting the victims), motor vehicle crime (contacting the victims to offer crime prevention) and vulnerable victims (visiting the victims to officer support and advice).
A number of you gave some great new information but didn't leave any contact details for us to follow up on this information. We rely on what you see to help us police the ward. If you wish to report what you see but you don't want to leave your name or contact details, please report anonymously via Crime Stoppers. By phone on 0800555111 or online via https://crimestoppers-uk.orcilgive‑
