Yesterday I had my regular meeting with Chief Superintendent Chapple, our local Police Borough Commander.
We discussed policing in Wimbledon Town Centre, the new neighbourhood policing structure in Merton, and additional police officers and PCSOs for our area.
I am pleased that we are due to receive a share of the 500 new PCSOs being recruited across London.
I stressed the need for these new PCSOs to have a central base from which to operate and the importance of protecting Wimbledon Police Station from Mayor Khan.
