The Constabulary is part of Havering Parks Protection Service, and works seven days a week.
[1] The Constabulary and support team are based at the Service's headquarters in Raphael Park, but use motorbikes and off-road vehicles to travel throughout the borough.
[3] Members of the constabulary are sworn in as constables under article 18 of the Greater London Parks and Open Spaces Order 1967,[4] meaning they have powers of a constable to deal with bye-laws relating to parks and open spaces under their control.
[5][6] Generally in London, parks police/constabularies will pass on all serious crime to the local territorial force, which in this case is the Metropolitan Police to investigate.
[citation needed] The motorcycles are also brightly marked and hold the Parks Constabulary crest and blue lights.
