The London police engagement centre at Masonville Mall is coming to an end.

Police launched the centre in December as part of a six month pilot project.

The space being used was donated and the centre operated from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays.

It was mostly used as a recruiting and education opportunity with members of various special units rotating through.

With the end of the pilot, police will no longer be using the space.
