At the recent Annual Parish Meeting PCSO Jonathan Sims introduced the attendees to a Police communication system that is proving successful.
Devon and Cornwall Alert is a free community messaging system to inform members of the public about crimes and incidents affecting their local area. The aim is to send relevant information where the local Police team believe to do so will reduce the opportunity for crime and anti-social behaviour or will help them solve a crime. You can choose the types of messages you want to receive, where you want to receive them and when you would like to get them.

In addition, Jonathan reminded the group that any member of the public can check the crime statistics for their local area by entering their postcode on the Police website https://www.police.uk/
