Policing
 


We all want our neighbourhood to feel and be safe. To this end, the Association keeps in touch with our Local Community Officers and maintains a good dialogue. If you have any concerns or points you would like raised, please let us know and we will ensure that they are discussed. Please read their most recent newsletter.

See the most up to date crime statistics for the Chase area. Also see here:- http://www.police.uk/ for crime statistics wherever you are.

Two current issues, especially relevant to the Chase Residents area, is the currently high number of burglaries and theft of and from motor vehicles.

We can all make it harder for the thief:-

  • make sure you lock all doors and windows when you go out
  • don't leave valuables in your vehicle
  • currently, the favourite access point is via your back door or window
  • if you are in your back Garden, shut your front windows
  • if you have side access, fit a gate (and lock it)
  • if you are away, ask a neighbour to turn lights on/off, deal with your post/rubbish/recycling etc
  • don't leave your car keys out in an obvious place (some burglaries are just to get your car keys !)
  • consider having a burglar alarm installed
  • fit PIR lighting around your property
  • be Vigilant !
  • become a member or start a Neighbourhood Watch Scheme

Police Non Emergency Contact No:- 0300 1231212 or 101 (see below)
All Emergencies Dial: 999

101 will be adopted by every police force in England and Wales as their non-emergency number. It will provide the public with one easy to remember number wherever they are in the country. While 999 is a well-recognised number used to report emergencies, the 2010 British Crime Survey found that only 54% of the public know how to contact their local police if they want to talk to them about policing, crime or anti-social behaviour. The introduction of the 101 number will help communities to keep their neighbourhoods safe by giving them one easy way to contact their local police force to report non emergency crime and disorder or to speak to their local officers. Calls to 101 will cost 15 pence per call, no matter how long you are on the phone – this applies to both landlines and mobile phones.

The Local Community Police Officers can be contacted on 020 8721 2473 or 07920 233886, by email or visit their website
