This is a new platform from the Met Police to help in their ability to communicate with the public and understand more about what they want from the police.

This will allow people to sign up and choose what kind of information they want from the police, see what events are happening in their area or contact us with useful intelligence.

This is a 2-way platform – so for instance, if there is a car theft on a given road, we can specifically share an alert only with people in that general area (so as not to overwhelm everyone with information.) At the same time, we can invite anyone with any evidence (for instance, sightings or doorbell footage) that might be useful, which they can then upload to the portal, giving us more evidence and opportunity to solve the crime.

More details can be found in the attached document. Just click on the thumbnail.
