Address Increased Drug-Related Crime and Disorder in Acton Hill

I very much hope that action will take place immediate to sort out this situation. It may take a little time to do but will work for the whole community.

Fear for our children’s safety

As a local PT I have noticed a rise in blatant drug dealing in the community, in particular behind Morrison’s and the block of flats (where the Morrison’s delivery vans access the back of the supermarket), by Acton Central train station and in the parks. Some of the dealers/runners look the age of school children

Too many drug dealing in Acton parks

This is happening all over Acton. Sick and tired of it

I live opposite a park (Springfield gardens) and see drug deal happening daily and drug use under the shrubbery. It's very upsetting to think that I am bringing up my children in this environent

It’s getting worse! And we’re all suffering because of it. We have a young family fearful to walk around our neighbourhood. Cars being broken into. Antisocial behaviour early hours of the morning. And drug paraphernalia thrown on the pavements. Utterly shocking. And must be stopped.

It is not right that you can walk down the road and see grown adults defacating in front of garages on Whitehall gdns in BROAD DAY LIGHT. These people are sick and need help… No point in pooling them altogether in half way houses that should have better support and none available… these people are prey for the drug dealers and clearly there are a lot of them judging by the number of these sick people roaming our street… constantly begging at the Tesco’s petrol station…

We are fed up and constantly on guard . Elderly residents have been robbed whilst putting the rubbish out and these opportunistic criminals think it’s easy to walk into their house and take what the like… probably to sell to make money for their drugs…

We are all fed up with this nonsense, cars getting ransacked , elderly residents’ houses getting robbed whilst putting the rubbish out in the bins… the total Decline is not acceptable.

We are concerned for the safety of neighbours and passersby.

Action on this petition is urgently needed.

Please let these actions be addressed as Acton as a whole is riddled with inappropriate situations which could be stopped if preventative measures were put in place!

This should be applied to wider Ealing too - the number of thefts have been increasing and should lead to arrests instead of relying on insurance policies to cover the loss.

This has been going on for years. I have reported it in the past especially one day when I saw one of the dealers persuading a very young woman with obvious learning difficulties to go into the flat with him. No one ever responded. Shocking.

Urgent intervention is required!

The high visibility of drug use in the area even in the day gives the impression that the streets are awash with serious drugs and that the perpetrators are able to carry on with such activities with impunity . This is not the “norm” we want to live in or bring children up in.

As per comments above

I am fed up of driving around my house when I return from work to find a place to park I feel like Steve McQueen in bullet but whilst hunting for a place to park I see anti social behaviour and youths everywhere I am so frustrated

This also needs to be taken seriously by the council who need to review and revoke this landlords HMO license
