Head of Community Safety
Enfield's Equalities Board is reviewing updates from the Head of Community Safety on hate crime and violence against women and girls.
The Enfield Equalities Board, which oversees the council's efforts to eliminate discrimination, reviewed an update from Jonathan Toy, Head of Community Safety, on hate crime and violence against women and girls in July 2025. Mr Toy had reported a small overall reduction in hate crime but an increase in antisemitic hate crime since October 2023 at the board's March 2025 meeting.
Violence against women and girls remains a top priority within the Safer Stronger Communities agenda, as highlighted by the Head of Community Safety. The Equalities Board, chaired by Councillor Mahmut Aksanoglu, also agreed in July 2025 to prioritise items for its Work Programme 2025/26.
No upcoming meetings are currently scheduled where the Head of Community Safety role or its related work is specifically listed on the agenda.
