- Theft From Motor Vehicles: To reduce Theft From Motor Vehicle offences in hotspot areas of KENSINGTON SQUARE, PRINCE OF WALES TERRACE, KENSINGTON COURT, SOUTHWELL GARDENS and QUEEN’S GATE GARDENS. Measured by the number of such crimes reported to police in these areas. 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/leaflet drops and working with RBKC to install signage/CCTV on affected streets. This number of these type of offences has been seen rise over the summer months, and crime figures show that it is one of the most prevalent offences on the ward. This concern is shared by Ward Panel members. This will be measured and reviewed at the next Ward Panel meeting (every three months).Queen's Gate team · set 22 Oct 2026What they're doing →
- Dangerous/Anti-social Cycling: To target dangerous/antisocial cycling on pavements on/around Gloucester Road and Queen’s Gate. Measured by number of fixed penalty notices issued, as well as anecdotal evidence seen by officers, Ward Panel members and local residents.
