Events will be organised by your local Safer Neighbourhood Teams during this month that will be advertised via the Met Police website or via Community Safe - a FREE warn and inform scheme being run by Merton Police. Professional advice on all aspects of potential vehicle crime and criminality including number plate security, Satellite Navigation safety, car security alarms/ immobilisers, accident prevention and window etching will be available. PC Greg HUNT Crime Prevention Advisor for Merton Police said; “By following simple steps such as locking your car and removing valuable items from your vehicle, you will significantly reduce the chance of becoming a victim of vehicle crime. Thieves will target cars which are insecure or where they can see items such as mobile phones or satellite navigation systems through the window. The aim of our campaign is to educate motorists on how to reduce the risk.” The Partnership will be giving away goodies to remind everyone to secure their vehicles and take valuables with them. Autoglass will be offering free windscreen health checks and will repair windscreen chips for free if the policy holder has fully comprehensive insurance.
