CRIMESTOPPERS :
Join the Fight against Crime
Crimestoppers operates across the UK to help identify, prevent, solve and reduce crime. This is primarily achieved through the freephone number 0800 555 111.
Members of the community can call this number anonymously with information about crime and criminal activity. No details are taken of the caller’s identity, the calls are not recorded or traced, the caller does not need to provide a statement or have to go to court. Crimestoppers are interested in what the caller knows, not who they are.
Rewards of up to £1,000 are available and are paid without compromising a caller’s anonymity. It’s a simple, secure service that allows the police to be put in the picture, without anyone knowing who provided the information.
The telephone number has provided a lifeline to people who have information that they want to share but feel at risk from retribution.
If there is anyone or anything in your area that doesn’t quite add up to the point that arouses your suspicion, don’t keep it to yourself – call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
Please remember that Crimestoppers is not an emergency service and if you see a crime taking place you should ring 999 to report it immediately.
The Warwickshire Board is looking for new volunteer members. If you want to play your part in impacting on local crime and make your community safer, please contact me.
