Heritage Wardens

Trafalgar Square Heritage WardenIt is important that Trafalgar Square is a safe, enjoyable environment for Londoners and visitors to the capital. Heritage Wardens are employed there at all times to make sure it is, and to help our visitors to enjoy the square.

The Heritage Wardens are there to help and give information to visitors on local attractions and the square's heritage and provide assistance during events. They wear distinctive uniforms and are on Trafalgar Square 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Since they were introduced in 2000, the Heritage Wardens have helped reduce graffiti and have made people feel safer on the square. Eighty five per cent of visitors said that they felt safe on Trafalgar Square in the 2007 user survey.
