Don’t make your home an easy target

This week sees the start of the Met Police's Autumn Nights crime prevention campaign. Historically, this is the time of year when we see an increase in burglaries. With the nights drawing in, please follow some simple crime prevention advice which will help to make your home more secure and make life more difficult for burglars: Close and lock all your doors and windows, even if you are only going out for a few minutes Make sure UPVC doors are properly locked with a key Leave lights and a radio on when you are not at home.

Congratulations to the Zoroastrian Community
Posted on 7:00am Wednesday 12th October 2011
The Zoroastrian Centre in Rayners Lane was the venue for His Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh's visit to the borough, to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Zoroastrian charity fund. I was impressed that the local Zoroastrian community had kindly invited members of our diverse communities to the event at the centre, which is the Zoroastrian's Headquarters in the United Kingdom. HRH the Duke of Edinburgh had an opportunity to meet with our local community and presented gifts to distinguished guests, including three members of the Zoroastrian community who like the Prince were also celebrating being 90 years of age.

Posted on 2:19pm Tuesday 4th October 2011
I had a meeting with all the local betting shop managers and Harrow Council this week, to discuss the level of crime and anti-social behaviour which we have seen in and around betting shops in Harrow, which concerns me. Sergeant Crump from our Licensing Unit will be arranging regular meetings with the group, who are keen to work together with the police and Harrow Council to deal with these challenges.

Autumn Crime Prevention
Posted on 9:26am Tuesday 13th September 2011
I am pleased to be back at work after my break which involved cycling with my daughters. The Deputy Borough Commander, Neil Vyse worked very hard dealing with the aftermath of the disorder in London, working long and unsocial hours across the capital. Although Harrow was not affected by the riots, our officers were patrolling throughout London.
