BBC closes Interactive Home Security Feature on BBCi
If you are looking for tips on home security you could
have taken a look at the BBCi

You could add security measures to a virtual house and have the benefits
explained to you. It was also good fun! Unfortunately, it has now closed!
The BBC recommend their
Crimewatch website instead.

With residential burglary in London at a 25 year low, and with reductions in street crime being recorded, the Met has made significant progress in tackling priority crime. But despite these successes, research shows the people of London feel crime is on the increase – and our success in reducing that priority crime is meaningless if they continue to feel unsafe in their communities.
Welcome to Safer Neighbourhoods … a new era in policing. As London’s most ambitious and far-reaching community safety strategy, this programme offers:
- Neighbourhood-based policing across Haringey.
- A dedicated team of officers for each neighbourhood, consisting of one sergeant, two constables and three police community support officers (PCSOs)
- Local communities a real say in deciding the priorities for that area, allowing the police to provide local solutions to local problems, whilst maintaining a focus on reducing priority crime
- A Safer Neighbourhoods team in every neighbourhood in Haringey in April 2006
