Safer
We work with a range of partner organisations, including the Met Police, Transport for London, London Fire Brigade and Islington Council and the business community to ensure the Angel is a safe place for all who work, live, study or visit.

Our Business Crime Officers, introduced in 2020, have already proved valuable to retailers and other customer facing businesses, being on-hand to help staff handle shoplifters and those creating anti-social behaviour.
PUBWATCH & SHOPWATCH
Our PubWatch Group and ShopWatch WhatsApp Group have enabled businesses to liaise and communicate with each other to raise alerts of suspicious behaviour and potential theft.
