Crime Mapping allows us to show you where crime is happening at a local level, so we can better engage with our communities and help them determine how best to police the area they live in.
Register your car here and help improve security. If your car is spotted being driven by someone who appears to be under 25, police officers can pull the car over and check the driver has permission from you to use the vehicle.
Sign up here for the free Community Messaging Service. The system is designed to circulate information rapidly, to keep members of the community informed of crimes in their area and current events, as well as appeals for witnesses to crime.
