One year with the LET
The LET joined H&F’s crime fighting services in 2021.
As violent crime in the UK rose and police numbers across London declined, the council created the team as an important extra force to crack down on local crime in its bid to make H&F a safer, stronger borough.
Since then, H&F’s officers have worked closely with the local community and partner organisations. Recent operations included:
- joint weapons sweeps with fellow officers from the Met Police
- shutting down an illegal campsite in Wormwood Scrubs
- and helping local year-six pupils prepare for their move to secondary school as part of the Junior Citizens scheme.
In addition to their daily patrols around the borough, the 72-strong team regularly conducts targeted 24-hour operations. Their most recent operation was on Wednesday 10 August on the West Kensington Estate.
Between April 2021 and 2022, the LET:
- took more than 65,000 actions around the borough
- launched 3,800 investigations in response to reports from local residents
- conducted over 1,500 weapon sweeps
- ran more than 6,200 patrols in housing estates across the borough
- issued 1,000 Fixed Penalty Notices
- helped clear over 900 instances of fly tipping
- and patrolled 100 per cent of all streets in H&F.

H&F’s LET patrols the borough day and night, seven days a week. If you see our officers out and about, make sure to say hi – they’re here to help.
