Bulletin 1 December 31st 2024 – January 15th 2025
If you are still pondering about the subject of resolutions for the New Year; why not make ‘Crime Prevention’ one of your Resolutions in 2025? ‘Crime Prevention’ is everyone’s business and involves taking some simple but effective steps to prevent crimes such as Burglary taking place. Don’t make it easy for the burglar; ensure windows and doors are locked in order to prevent opportunities. Taking just a few steps can make a big difference in keeping your home safe from burglary. Here are a few tips: We would rather investigate a suspected burglar there and then, than be called when it’s too late, so if you see something suspicious in action on your property or land, or your neighbours; call us and let us know. Please know that we want you to call us at the very moment of your being suspicious, rather than later when it’s too late. We will always support you in this. Looking out for each other and working together, to keep you safe. Thank you for supporting your local policing team over the past year
