'Have Your Say' Podsmead

17/Feb/2012

The Safer Gloucester Partnership will be holding the next 'Have Your Say' day in an area of Podsmead. The team will be visiting as many residents as they can to find out their views and experiences of crime and anti-social behaviour in the neighbourhood.

The Safer Gloucester team, made up of Officers from the Police, City Council (including local Councillors), Project Solace, and Neighbourhood Watch will be knocking on doors from 10-4 on Friday the 17th February 2012. Safer Gloucester will also be giving out crime prevention information to help residents protect their property.

These events have been successful in the past in finding out what issues are the priorities of residents and how the agencies can improve life in the area. Safer Gloucester is keen to create as many 'SmartWater' zones across Gloucester as possible, as SmartWater is a valuable property marker that can deter burglars from breaking in. Crime prevention tools such as SmartWater can be purchased at from Bearlands Police Station in Gloucester City Centre.
