The Croydon Community School-Time Patrols have resumed their operations following the Easter holidays, marking a renewed commitment to enhancing safety and security for young people in our community. After a brief hiatus, our dedicated volunteers are back on the streets, ready to make a positive impact.
Resumption of Patrols: The patrols resumed on the 16th of April and will continue to operate twice a day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. This consistent presence ensures that we maintain a vigilant watch over our community during peak school commute times, when incidents involving young people are most prevalent.
Impact of Previous Term: Our first term of patrols saw us making crucial interventions for young people at risk and diffusing potentially dangerous situations. The positive outcomes of our interventions underscore the importance of our presence in the community and the valuable role we play in safeguarding young people.
Community Engagement: We have been warmly welcomed by the community and have received positive feedback from several schools in the area. Additionally, we have steadily increased our number of volunteers, both on patrol and behind the scenes, reflecting growing support for our initiative.
Building Networks: Our efforts extend beyond patrolling the streets. We have actively engaged with local organisations and services to build a robust network of support for our community. Through collaboration and partnership, we aim to create a cohesive framework that addresses the diverse needs of our residents.
Looking Ahead: As we enter a new term of patrols, we remain committed to our mission of promoting safety and well-being in our community. We will continue to develop our framework, explore new avenues for engagement, and strive to make a positive difference in the lives of young people in Croydon.
Conclusion: The resumption of the Croydon School-Time Patrols signals a renewed dedication to community safety and empowerment. With the support of our volunteers, partners, and stakeholders, we are poised to make meaningful contributions to the well-being of our community. Together, we can create a safer and more secure environment for all.
We encourage everyone to stay updated on our activities and initiatives as we work towards a brighter and safer future for Croydon.
