London

LCP2, a registered charity, builds the capacity of the Community Police Engagement Groups in each of the 32 London Boroughs. As CEO I transformed the predecessor body into a registered charity and limited company, negotiated major increase in funding, built up the profile of LCP2 and community police engagement in London generally, and created a unique and comprehensive source of intelligence about the crime and community safety concerns of London’s communities. Public sector spending cuts have led to funding being withdrawn and LCP2 is now run entirely by volunteers with no paid staff.
