Current Priorities
Issue
Burglary - Waddon SNT have had an increase in burglary lately and our aim is to reassure residents on our ward that we will be offering crime prevention advice and how to keep their properties and belongings safe.
Action
To continually attend all victims of burglary providing reassurance and crime prevention advice.
Issue
Theft from motor vehicles - Unfortunately on our ward we have a lot of attempted/theft from vehicles. In order to prevent this we try to make residents vigilant. Normally we do this by posting crime prevention leaflets through residents doors. This will have information like, make sure your vehicle is always locked, make sure windows are closed, secure things inside the vehicle and not to be visible from outside. We contact all ward members who had been a victim of burglary.
Action
To visit with victims of providing reassurance and crime prevention advice. Continually monitor and target local patrols to reflect intelligence provided.
Issue
Drug offences - Waddon SNT have seen a rise in drug offences across the ward, with reports coming mainly around the open spaces within the ward. Officers have increased patrols around these areas in aid to tackle these offences taking place.
Action
Increase hi-vis patrols in the local parks and open spaces.
