On 18 December, the Mayor and Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime launched their consultation on the draft Police and Crime Plan (2025-29) for London. In this document, they set out how they will continue to deliver for Londoners, building on the work of the previous two Mayoral terms to make our city safer for everyone.
Safe, confident communities are the foundation of London’s success. Their vision is therefore both for London to be a safer city, with crime falling, and for Londoners to feel safer as they go about their daily lives.
To deliver this vision, the draft Police and Crime Plan sets out some key objectives:
- reducing violence and criminal exploitation
- increasing trust and confidence in the Metropolitan Police Service
- improving the criminal justice system and supporting victims
The formal consultation on the draft Plan runs until 23:59 on Wednesday 12 February, and the final Police and Crime Plan will be published before the end of March 2025.
Following the publication of the Police and Crime, MOPAC will publish a refreshed strategy for tackling violence against women and girls (VAWG). They would be happy to hear your additional views on how we make London a safe city for every woman and girl as part of this consultation.
The draft Police and Crime Plan is available at www.london.gov.uk/policecrimeplan along with details on the different ways you can take part in the consultation.
