Read advice about a current Card Fraud Telephone Scam from our local SNT

We liaise very closely with our local Safer Neighbourhoods Team (SNT) under the supervision of Sergeant Graeme Day.

Members of the team usually come to our monthly meetings to keep us up to date on local matters. It is good to report that over the last 12 months crime statistics in the Queen’s Park Area are down.

Sgt Day is now in charge of “Community Payback” in our area. Payback teams have recently been sweeping leaves in the area.  If you think there is another  local project which could benefit from this please get in touch.

In cases of emergency or spotting something suspicious in your area please call 999 for a real emergency or

Through the SNT we try to encourage individual streets to set up Neighbourhood Watch schemes. You may even get an discount on your home insurance if you’re a member of one!

Are you a cyclist?
Keep a look out for the SNT doing free bike security marking at the local Farmers’ Market. They are often there on Sunday mornings or in the park at Sunday lunchtimes near the café.

BASIC ADVICE

Report crime. Take advantage of free security advice from the Crime Prevention team.
Always make sure you lock your doors and windows. Don’t let strangers into your homes.
Don’t leave valuables (wide screen TVs, computers/laptops etc) on display near windows.
Don’t leave valuables (laptops, sat navs) on view in your cars.
High front garden hedges can create an easy place for burglars to hide and attempt to break in unnoticed. Keep them low.
