STREET WATCH Street Watch is a scheme run by the community, for the community in partnership with the police. Street watch is about being out and about in your local area providing reassurance to the public and helping police to tackle local problems. You can help police tackle the low-level issues that impact most on your communities and their quality of life. Street Watch volunteers walk around their community just like any other resident. However, Street Watch members will walk in pairs wearing high visibility jackets, in order to provide visible levels of reassurance, to promote good citizenship, and to increase the feeling of safety.
WHAT STREET WATCH INVOLVES
A minimum of two hours patrols every month Once we have approximately four members then the scheme can get off the ground Patrolling must be done in pairs and they must be in possession of a mobile phone You will have regular contact with your local police team so that team members are aware of current local issues and concerns Highlighting problems such as anti-social behaviour, graffiti and environmental problems Florescent jackets bearing the Street Watch insignia must be worn when you are patrolling Members will be given a short presentation prior to the scheme commencing, outlining their role, expectations and ensuring they fully understand the ethos behind the scheme We will provide insurance which must be in place before you can begin, our insurance policy for each Street Watch area can cover 15 people.
We are still seeing offences of Theft of Keyless Vehicles and to stop your vehicle from being targeted please see the below regarding a Signal Blocking Pouch ……
Blocking Vehicle Theft
Keyless car fobs are an increasing common feature of modern vehicles, allowing proximity access and push – button Ignition Unfortunately, as the design of vehicles has modernised, so too have the methods of the thieves that target them. Tech – savvy criminals are using signal boosting devices to amplify the proximity signal of a fob that is inside a property, while an accomplice waits next to the vehicle, ready to open the door and known as Relay Attacks / Keyless Thefts. This method Is quick, silent, & allows the easy theft of vehicles and valuables
The Solution
The Defender Signal Blocker’s specialist RPF material prevents a contained key fob transmitting, preventing Relay Attacks If you require one then please contact me on the following ….kenneth.walters@westmidlands.police.uk
