A new three-year plan to make communities safer in Kensington and Chelsea has been agreed by the council.

It will focus on four priorities; drug related offending, anti social behaviour, youth violence and violence against women and girls.

Prior to Covid-19 restrictions, crime in the borough was the highest it had been in ten years.

In 2019, Kensington and Chelsea had the third highest rate of crime per 1,000 residents in London, and in 2021 it had the sixth.
