Cycle theft
Greenwich achieve a 24% reduction in parcel and cycle theft
Greenwich Neighbourhood Watch Network were approached by local policing teams to help problem solve and provide assistance regarding a large rise in parcel theft from apartment blocks and cycle thefts from locked communal garages.

We designed several posters to be

One of our busiest and most famous areas, Canary Wharf, has recently suffered a rise of bicycle thefts. Engaging with residents of the area via a dedicated Facebook Group, I received many requests to help them get safe and secure bicycle storage. Not only do I encourage them to build more Neighbourhood Watch groups to get a better negotiation position when talking to private estate owners but I also refer them to unique schemes in the Borough, which install secure
