REACH Edmonton Council for Safe Communities, in partnership with the Edmonton Police Service and the City of Edmonton, invites you to participate in the REACH EDMONTON COMMUNITY SAFETY CAMPAIGN coming to a neighbourhood near you this fall.

 

REACH is a community-based coordinating council that is working to make Edmonton a safer city. REACH works with organizations, agencies, community groups and individual Edmontonians; bringing them together to realize their innovative ideas for crime prevention.

–          Connecting citizens and community leaders from across the ward together to exchange stories, ideas and challenges;

–          Identifying resources that are working well and resources that are missing;

–          Identifying areas of collaboration between communities;

–          Begin facilitating the necessary training for community leaders to organize more effectively and increase the safety of their communities.

An increase in thefts from vehicles in the west-end

From the Edmonton Police Service

With the warm weather finally upon us, we have noticed an increase in theft from vehicles in the West Division area. People are now outdoors more often and into the night hours. We would like to remind everyone to keep vehicles locked. If possible, park your vehicles inside a garage or on the street in a well lit area. Also, take all valuables out of the vehicle. Some common valuables that are forgotten inside vehicles are spare change, sunglasses, cigarettes, duffel bags and cell phones. If you must store items inside your vehicle, keep them out of sight. Criminals are opportunistic. Don’t give them the opportunity!
