One of our key priorities for this Police and Crime Plan is to make London a safer city for children and young people by working to tackle the crimes that cause most harm to young Londoners including: knife crime, gang-related crime, sexual abuse and serious youth violence.
We're taking action against those who prey on children either by offending against them or by grooming and exploiting them to engage in criminal behaviour.
Our focus is on preventing crime, intervening with those already involved in criminal activity, and enforcing the law for those who persist in breaking it.
