Redbridge has three main areas of local concern:
The primary threat to London remains Islamist Extremist (IE) inspired Self-Initiated Terrorism (S-IT) and IE remains the most likely ideological inspiration within caseloads.
It is a realistic possibility that an Extreme Right-Wing Terrorism (ERWT) attack will occur in London. If an attack were to take place, it is highly likely this would be conducted by a Self-Initiated Terrorism (S-IT) attack.
Gang and knife issues are prevalent across London and offences are seen in Redbridge. .
One of the biggest drivers of extremism and radicalisation is the online space and this is prevalent across all ideologies (ERW and Islamist as well as other ideologies). Young people can be particularly affected by the online space as it often consumes their lives.

Redbridge Safer Neighbourhoods Team
The Safer Neighbourhoods Team (SNT) is a group of Metropolitan police officers dedicated to serving your community. The team is made up of officers based in your area (or 'ward'), supported by additional officers from the wider area. The main issues that they tackle include:
- increases in hate crimes (particularly anti-Islamic and anti-Semitic)
- issues with rough sleepers and beggars, particularly in and around Gants Hill station & High Road,Ilford - learners and staff are reminded not to give money to individuals but to registered charities only as giving money to individuals attracts criminals to the area
