Good Afternoon Resident,
 
Here’s a quick round up from myself and the rest of the Bushbury and Low Hill neighbourhood policing team.
 
What’s been happening
 

Since the 28th November 2024 we have no reported burglaries within the Bushbury and Low Hill neighbourhood which is extremely positive news, however this does not mean we can become complacent. 

Lock up, protect your home. 

✔️ Keep your doors and windows locked whether you’re in or out. 

✔️If you have an alarm make sure you use it 

✔️Remove keys from locks and keep out of reach from windows or doors

If you feel you are aware of any suspicious behaviour or have any concerns in relation to the above message please contact us via 101 or WMPLive Chat. We always recommend reporting via the appropriate channels 999 in an emergency or 101/ live-chat to ensure preventative work can be conducted by your neighbourhood team.

Over the past 7 days we have seen an increase in vehicle related crime. As a neighbourhood team we are currently using both officer and community related intelligence to reduce the amount of issues being caused. If you feel you could contribute to this intelligence please don’t hesitate to report it via WMP or Crime Stoppers. The information provided will and can remain completely anonymous.

This week neighbourhood PCSO’s 31794 and 31905 attended the local community centres providing advice, guidance and support around antisocial behaviour. It was also a positive experience to see the hard work and dedication the local volunteers provide to support the events hosted at the community hubs.

These community hubs provide mental health and well being, family support, career opportunities, providing the community with local places and groups to attend and encourage residents to stay connected with the local community. The locations can be found below:
