Dear Resident
I hope that you are enjoying the lovely weather so far, and are staying hydrated.
There are no joint Police and Councillor/Police Surgery this month, they will be back in September.
In this time of the year when lots of people go on holiday, please let your neighbours know, if you are friendly, and ask them to keep an eye out. Although CCTV is a good tool for evidence and investigating a crime, and alarms are helpful as well, neighbours are able to call the Police, when they see something/someone, which is out of the ordinary.
Please also visit, for more information, the MPS page for ways to protect your vehicle from catalytic converter theft: https://www.met.police.uk/cp/crime-prevention/keeping-vehicles-safe/catalytic-converter-theft/
Please report any crimes through one of the 3 ways below:
- 101 (the non-emergency number for reporting crime;
- www.met.police.uk and choose the Report tab; or
- Croydon Police Station Front Office, which is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
