News on Lambeth Safer Streets

Our Safer Streets Commonplace survey helps Lambeth Council to understand the safety issues impacting upon women residents and visitors to the borough. We use the information you provide to help us identify areas that may not feel very safe as well as any improvements that are needed - such as additional patrols from our public protection team, better street lighting, or more CCTV cameras. Your feedback helps us to prioritise what actions to take and also informs our discussion with our partners, including the police.

We wanted to let you know that the Police have also established a service for members of the public to share concerns directly with them.If you would like to share broader concerns around safety and antisocial behaviour anywhere in the UK with the police then you can visit the Street Safe website.

“StreetSafe is a service for anyone to anonymously tell us about public places where you have felt or feel unsafe, because of environmental issues, eg street lighting, abandoned buildings or vandalism and/or because of some behaviours, eg being followed or verbally abused.

Please note: 'StreetSafe' is not for reporting crime or incidents.

If something has happened to you or someone you know (including in public spaces online) you can call us on 101 or find out what online reporting services are available.

If you're unsure whether something is a crime or not, read our advice.“
