Dear Resident

Below you will find some crime prevention advice.

Please continue to report any suspicious behaviour in your area.

A lot of crimes committed in the community are opportunist crimes. Please do whatever you can to minimise the risk of you becoming a victim –  

Mopeds and Motorbikes – Please put your bike out of sight, if this is not possible, secure it with a thick chain and padlock to something solid, further advice can be found at Motorcycle Security Guide - Best Way to Prevent Motorbike Theft (2024) (locksmiths.co.uk)

Bicycles – Register your frame no on a free cycle database such as BikeRegister. This helps police identify stolen property easier and return it to its rightful owner. Never leave a bike unlocked. Double lock it with 2 D locks – Lock the frame and both wheels to a secure cycle stand. Take removable parts with you.
