Several young persons have been identified and work is ongoing towards utilisation of ASB powers to steer them away from criminality.

There has been a recent increase in residential burglaries targeting accommodations during the early morning hours.

We would like to inform you about a new Crime Prevention initiative we are trialling over the festive period and invite you to take part. For many, the festive period may involve extended periods away from your home, be it going on holiday, a student returning home during the Christmas break, or staying with friends or family. This unfortunately can lead to a period of security vulnerability for your home that can be exploited by burglars. From a Policing standpoint, our drive to pursue and protect you from offenders can be hampered by not knowing a specific time when the offence occurred, often only reported upon a return home, with no or limited descriptions of offenders to pursue and prevent from committing further offences. We are therefore piloting a new burglary prevention initiative in your area as we look to explore new ways of preventing crime using readily available technologies. This crime prevention initiative will involve the use of temporary internal CCTV cameras or monitors whilst your home is vacant for a prolonged period. These cameras are available through many main retailers and are simple by design. They are placed in position and link directly to your phone, providing a notification when movement is detected. The cameras should be utilised solely on a temporary basis during extended periods of unoccupancy, such as holidays or term breaks, and are only permitted in private rooms in multi-occupancy houses to avoid privacy concerns in shared spaces. To support this initiative we currently have a limited number of CCTV monitors available for distribution in the area. If you have plans to be away for a prolonged time over the Christmas period and are interested in participating in the initiative, please email your local ward officer which can be found below, with your name and address and we will make contact with you based on availability.
