James
“While out on patrol with Joe, we came across an individual we believed may have been armed near the Bakerloo Tube entrance. It later became clear he was harming himself, we referred the situation to the Police to help ensure he received the support he needed.”
Joe
“Earlier this month we received a call from a member business regarding an aggressive individual. The person was aggravating members of staff and displaying violent behaviour. We escalated the situation to the police who came and detained the individual.”
Nicole
“This month I visited local pubs to investigate the recurring phone thefts happening in the area. It was useful to gather information and intelligence that will hopefully help prevent future incidents.”
Zakir
“I’m delighted to be the newest member of the PaddingtonNow Community Safety Team. It’s been great joining such a welcoming team and supporting the local area. This month I helped a vulnerable individual access the appropriate support services following exposing herself in public.”
