Local Priorities Burglary Message

From PCSO Alina ELISEI I wanted to provide you with an update regarding burglary, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey.   Dear residents, Please keep your homes safe from opportunistic burglars . Safeguard your building • Lock all windows and double lock doors when you go out, even if it’s only for a few minutes. • Make your home look occupied: use timer lights when the nights get longer, and cancel deliveries if you’re going away. • Make sure your locks are strong enough to keep burglars out. Secure your outside • Keep gates, sheds and garages locked and don’t leave tools lying around as they can be used to break in. • Keep hedges at the front low and install outdoor lighting, so burglars have nowhere to hide. • Install trellises and spiky plants to stop burglars from climbing over fences. Other useful tips: • Make sure communal doors in flats are closed and secured, not left on the latch. • If you’re going away, cancel post deliveries. • Not sure if you’re going to be in to accept your order? Nominate a neighbour or safe place for your delivery. For more advice on how to keep your home safe, visit www.met.police.uk/burglary.  Please stay safe!

YOU ARE INVITED TO

The CPAAG
“Meet the Neighbours + AGM” evening.
on
Wednesday 30th SEPTEMBER 2026

Starts 7:15 p.m. & closes 9:00 p.m.

Doors open at 7:00 p.m.
at the
Hammersmith Academy
25 Cathnor Road, London, W12 9JD

 
Once again, we are holding our CPAAG “Meet the Neighbours + AGM” Event at The Hammersmith Academy and are very grateful to them for the use of their facilities.
 
The event is always a productive and friendly evening, and there will be refreshments available.
 
This year we hope to have a special guest speaker and, again, have decided to dedicate the lion’s share of the evening to our Police Team and Cathnor Park. 
 
We have had a lot of issues arising in the park recently, from drug dealers and users to confusion over where dogs should be walked and exercised. We are also concerned about the aging children’s play equipment. 
 
We would like to make the park much more user friendly, and match more closely what our local community would like their park to be and would therefore encourage you to attend the meeting and share your views and concerns.
 
We are inviting as many stakeholders in the park as we can - local councillors, police, council representatives and others in order to get as comprehensive a view as possible.
 
Please invite any of your neighbours or friends who might also like to share their views on this important local resource.

2026-0512 - Met Police - Local Priorities Fraud

 Dear All

The following message has been sent by the Metropolitan Police via Neighbourhood Alert.

Local Priorities Fraud Message

Dear All

I wanted to provide you with an update regarding Fraud, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey.

Dear Coningham residents,

Please be aware of door to door scams that involve criminals knocking your door and unexpectedly offering products or services and pretending to be someone that is not and showing fake id to make you believe that they are genuine. Fraudsters convince you to pay for goods or work which is often overpriced, of poor quality or is not even carried out. In many cases ,this work is not even necessary. They may use intimidation and pressure you to make quick decisions so that you agree to their demands.

How to protect yourself

• Always check their identity. If you are not happy about a person s identity do not let them into your house under any circumstances.
• Never leave your front door open/unlocked and unattended, so a second individual can't enter without your knowledge.
• Take time to consider your options and research costs from other providers. If in doubt contact your local Trading Standards.
• If you feel pressured by any cold caller, have the confidence to be firm and say so.
• Legitimate builders do not call door to door.
• Call the citizen advice consumer helpline following a doorstep caller on 03454040506
• Remember to take time to consider your options. Don t be pressured into making quick decision.
• Never pay upfront for goods and services you have not received.
• Think if they are legitimate company and if you did not have a written quote.Thin

Stay safe!
Coningham SNT

 

Fraud can affect anyone within the community, so we want to make sure you have the tools and knowledge to protect yourself from it. It comes in many different forms and across varying channels, whether that's through emails, phone calls or in person encounters. Some adults may be even more vulnerable to fraud or financial abuse, but it is something that everyone can be at risk of. If you’re concerned about someone you know, please contact your local social services and ask for Adult Social Care.

Please see a few resources below to protect you and others from potential fraudsters:

• Learn the ten golden rules to prevent fraud.
• Find out about the most common types of fraud 
• Download The Little Book of Big Scams to find out more. The Little Book of Big Scams audio version is also available.

For more information and help and to report fraud, go to Action Fraud, the UK’s national fraud and cybercrime reporting centre. Lastly, if you think you’ve uncovered a scam, been targeted by a scam or fallen victim to fraudsters, please contact 101 or Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040 or online at Action Fraud.

We are working on our brand-new strategy for how we police London and we want your help. Our New Met for London: Phase 2 strategy will guide how we deliver on behalf of Londoners over the next three years.
 

2026-0511 - Responsible Dog Ownership PSPO

 Dear All

The following email has been received from the LBHF Community Safety Unit … please reply to this consultation which will be open from 8th May 2026 and will close 8th June 2026.
 

---

Responsible Dog Ownership Public Space Protection Order Consultation

To help keep our parks safe and pleasant for all we’re consulting on whether we should continue our Responsible Dog Ownership PSPO in Hammersmith & Fulham

Friends of Park Groups are a key stakeholder and we would appreciate your input on the proposed restrictions. 

The consultation can be found here -  Responsible Dog Ownership Public Space Protection Order | H&F Have Your Say 

Whilst this refers to ALL LBHF Parks we are proposing to change the current restrictions in Cathnor Park due to changes in the use of the park for example the forest school is no longer in use. If a new play park is introduced at a later date this will automatically become a no dogs zone. 

Please can we ask that you share the consultation with members of your group and that each individual completes the consultation so that we are able to assess the level of support for the proposed rules more accurately. 

Please get in touch if you have any further questions. 

Best wishes

Community Safety Team
