Safer Communities

Together we can call out crime.

Don't let thieves and burglars steal our community. 

Thieves and burglars operate all year round.

We want to make everyone aware of our anonymous service, as well as sharing crime prevention advice from our partners Neighbourhood Watch to help protect you, your home and car from opportunistic thieves.

see neighbourhood watch's crime prevention page.

We need to protect ourselves and our possessions from crime. You and your neighbours can help each other - for instance, by looking out for each other's homes when you go on holiday. 

If you have information on the criminals behind any of the below crimes, tell us what you know. You’ll stay 100% anonymous. Always.

Burglary

Domestic burglary may be perceived as a victimless crime; however, 84% of victims feel emotionally affected after a burglary, with 35% feeling vulnerable, resulting in a lack of confidence. 

Burglars keep an eye out for empty and unprotected properties  - but, by speaking up, together we can all help to combat this.

If you know something about a planned crime, or have seen a crime take place and want to remain anonymous, tell us what you know:
