Please remain vigilant to opportunistic phone snatchers and monitor vacant properties which can become targets for squatters.
We ask for you to report any form of suspicious behaviour to the Street Team on 07456 673 895. Alternatively, you can report directly to the police on 999, non-emergency on 101 or by completing an online report.
