People wanting to give information to the Police, who are concerned about talking to them directly and want to remain anonymous , can now use a ‘Met Box’ which has been placed near the till points in Sainsburys Clapham.

The box can also be used to communicate with your local safer neighbourhood teams views on local issues that you believe the police should focus on.

This is a great initiative, even if the box does not get a great deal of use it helps raise awareness of the local safer neighbourhood teams who are doing excellent work in Clapham.

Clapham Town Safer Neighbourhood Team can be reached at ClaphamTown.snt@met.police.uk or by calling 020 8721 2825.

By reporting this, the graffiti will be removed by the council within 48 hours. Removing graffiti is costly. Graffiti makes an area feel run down and increases the perception that criminal activity is prominent in that area. If you have any information regarding the people behind this criminal damage please contact the Clapham Town Safer Neighbourhood team: 020 8721 2825 – 07881 516977. I have already forwarded these images to them and ask them to see if any images of the culprits were captured on CCTV in the area.

To report graffiti, please call 0207 926 9000 or email graffiti@lambeth.gov.uk. In my experience they are very quick to respond to reports and the quicker graffiti is removed the better.

and then after the graffiti was reported and removed…
