Unfortunately there has been an increase in vehicle crime here and across the country. Some of it is opportunists trying doors, but some of it is very sophisticated.
Last night we spoke to the police along with local residents. We talked about some ways we can tackle it as a community.
We have drawn together a guide to tackling local crime here, and we will update it continuously. See the item about RING doorbells for example, which shows how crime changes with the times.
Help us communicate advice and information
We want to use local street Whatsapp groups to share advice directly from the police. Please see how you can help us do that here.
