The free, family event will give visitors a rare opportunity for a behind-the-scene tour of the police station while meeting local officers and finding out about some of the Met's specialist units.
On the day, visitors will be greeted by Redbridge officers, Special Constables and volunteers who will explain what it is like to work in their police role and give out information, to those interested, about how to join the Metropolitan Police family.
Visitors can come along and watch displays from specialist departments including the Met's Dog Unit and horses from the Mounted Branch. There will be an opportunity to look at some vintage police cars and the Historical Society will explain the history of the Met through the years.
Attendees will be able to pick up and try on some personal protection clothing used in public order events and take a guided tour of the custody suite where young visitors can have their fingerprints taken and their faces painted.
During the community engagement event, the public will have an opportunity to discuss policing in the borough, get crime prevention advice and be informed of how they can 'Get Involved' in their area.
