Safe Street

Welcome to Safe Street, our fictional street promoting home and community safety.

Our fictional friends on Safe Street work together to keep their loved ones, homes and neighbourhood safe and secure. From setting up a local Neighbourhood Watch, to investing in the latest home security tech, or even becoming a Crimestopper with our charity’s volunteering scheme, the residents of Safe Street have peace of mind knowing that:

• The only unexpected visitor is Mr Meow the cat, ringing the doorbell to let his Mum know he wants to come in…
• The only devastation taking place is of a sofa cushion in number 19’s lounge as their pooch has some naughty fun while home alone…
• The only escape attempt is of Flopsy the pet bunny, digging his way under the fence into the neighbour’s garden…

Crimestoppers wants to share top tips on how to keep your home and local community safe with fellow safety superheroes Neighbourhood Watch and Ring, because when we all work as a team, we can help make communities safer together.

Safe Street can be a reality.

Thinking of letting some supersmart tech do the heavy lifting when it comes to keeping your home safe and secure? Our protection pals at Ring have got you covered. Not only that, but Ring products have been designed to let you check in with your home, your pets or your loved ones to make sure everything is OK, and they have been known to capture some surprises and cuteness along the way, as illustrated in our animation above and here (you don’t have to miss your pup while at work, catch up with them from your desk). Ring can keep you connected to what’s important and can provide you with some unexpected humorous and touching moments too.

And remember, if you ever have information on a real crime and want to stay anonymous, you can always call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, or fill in our easy-to-use online form, here on our website. Our team are here 24/7, 365 days a year, and we'll never ask who you are, never judge, or ask how you know about a crime. We’re just here to help you make a difference and keep your community safe.

In an emergency, always call 999.
