Introduce regular police patrols and CCTV at Primrose Hill Park

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Require regular visible police patrols at Primrose Hill and support the installation of CCTV at entrances and key areas to deter anti-social behaviour, improve safety, and assist investigations following incidents

Following two fatal incidents at Primrose Hill in recent years, there is growing concern about safety in the park. Visible policing is non existent and anti-social behaviour has increased. The park is heavily used and should feel safe at all times. Regular police patrols and CCTV would act as a deterrent and support investigations, helping to restore confidence and prevent further serious incidents.
