Working in partnership with local police
About this activity
Suitable for the whole school community.
Your borough’s Safer Transport Team (STT) is funded by TfL to offer a visible presence and engage with the community to reduce crime and fear of crime on the transport network.
Your local STT can support school travel initiatives that relate to fear of crime, antisocial behaviour and Year 6’s transition to secondary school.
Your local police service has a range of other teams dedicated to various aspects of community safety and will often have officers dedicated to liaising with schools. You can work in partnership with your local police team in a number of ways including offering staff for events, activities and delivering assemblies.
Contact your borough officer or nearest STT for more information.
