It’s ASB Awareness Week 30 June to 6 July 2025
Come to a free pop-up event to learn about the measures we can take to tackle antisocial behaviour (ASB).
Find out about the work we do to prevent crime in the borough.
The Southwark Policing Oversight Board works to improve trust and confidence between the police and the community. Its work focuses on the Central South Borough Command Unit (BCU), which serves Southwark and Lambeth.
The independent board launched in response to The Baroness Casey Review, which reported significant failings in the Metropolitan Police. London Mayor, Sadiq Khan, has also emphasised the need to rebuild trust between the police and communities.
People from diverse backgrounds, with a range of experiences and expertise, were invited to apply to form the board. The board launched in December 2024 and will meet regularly throughout the year.
The Southwark Policing Oversight Board will examine a number of areas, including the transparency and accountability of policing in Southwark, and how local police teams work with the community.
We welcome your thoughts on these issues. Email the Southwark Policing Oversight Board at policingoversight@southwark.gov.uk.
