Bromley Council Snow Friends

Snow Friends are local people organised by Bromley council who volunteer to clear snow and ice in their street within a Snow Friends group led by a Snow Friend coordinator.

Help keep your street free of snow and ice by becoming a Snow Friend.

In addition to the 280 miles of priority routes that Bromley Council’s winter service gritting crews treat, you could play an important part in keeping the borough moving by supporting this work in residential side streets which are not part of this operation. 

Further information and application details available at https://www.bromley.gov.uk/roads-highways-pavements/snow-friends

Important announcement

As 2025 draws to a close, the BHRA thoughts are now turning to 2026 and some very important changes within our community. Firstly, you may be aware that our local Councillor Sophie Dunbar who has recently announced her move to the Biggin Hill Conservative team, joining forces with Philip Hatch for the upcoming local elections due to be held on 7th May 2026. We will also be saying goodbye to our Biggin Hill Independent Councillor Melanie Stevens who will be retiring after 12 years of service and we thank her for all her hard work on behalf of the Biggin Hill Community.

As a Residents Association, we are a non-political organisation and as such will not be able to support any party or candidate in the lead up to next years election. Notwithstanding this, individual committee members will be free to support any candidate of their choosing as a Biggin Hill resident and will do so in line with our constitution. Therefore, any activity of our committee members during this time of change, will be their personal choice and not representative of the BHRA.

We will be inviting all candidates to a Hustings at a future date, where voters can hear their views, debate policies and answer some of the questions from our Biggin Hill community.  

We have an exciting time of change ahead and we look forward to working alongside our successful Councillors in the future.

Reporting crime in Biggin Hill

Below is a message from Police Sergeant Tony Brown….

Since I have taken over as the Ward Sergeant I am shocked at the amount of calls and emails from residents reporting both crimes in progress, past crimes and Anti social behaviour to the ward phones (which will be decommissions very soon) and ward email boxes.  My team of officers and staff is very low at the moment, with two more officers hopefully joining us by the end of the year.  With entitled annual leave, course and operational abstractions due to ULEZ camera issues, Protests in central London and back filling Emergency response teams these phones and emails are not checked for days.

Please could you help me in passing the message that ALL reports regardless of the issues, ASB and or Crimes regardless when happened MUST either be reported online via the Met police website or over the phone by calling 101 for non-emergency or 999 for emergency.

https://www.met.police.uk/contact/af/contact-us-beta/contact-us

Contact us – Metropolitan Police
Call 999 in emergency situations like these: there is an immediate danger to life someone is using violence or is threatening to be violent a road traffic collision where life is at risk, or the road is blocked a crime is happening right now, like a house burglary or a theft If you accidentally dial 999, please stay on the line and tell the operator you’re safe and that no crime has occurred … www.met.police.uk

If the residents have the time to send a detailed email I am sure they could complete a short online reporting form, which logs the incident, send to be triaged and someone will complete a report and if an ASB local issue should be sent to me to review and allocate.  

I feel together as a community we can do great things, but the local residents whom continue to send emails and phone the ward phone are feeling unheard due to the way they are not reporting correctly, and feel that were not listening.

Thank you for listening and I hope that together we can reduce ASB and Crimes on the Ward.

Best wishes,

Police Sergeant Tony Brown LCGI
