Is there somewhere in your neighbourhood you feel unsafe?

StreetSafe is a pilot scheme aimed at identifying areas where the public don't feel safe. Launched earlier this year by the Home Office and the National Police Chiefs’ Council, the new online tool allows the public, particularly women and girls, to pinpoint areas on a map where they feel unsafe and say why.

The information can then by used by police forces, Police & Crime Commissioners and local authorities to improve local safety.

StreetSafe allows anyone to anonymously tell the police about public places where you have felt or feel unsafe, because of environmental issues, eg street lighting, abandoned buildings or vandalism and/or because of some behaviours, eg being followed or verbally abused.

While the vast majority of people feel safe across Thames Valley, there are some areas in our communites where, women in particular, can feel less safe. Now you can report an area you feel is unsafe, on-line and anonymously using StreetSafe by visting www.thamesvalley.police.uk/notices/street-safe.

Please note that because StreetSafe is anonymous it cannot be used for reporting a crime and incidents will not be investigated.

If something has happened to you or someone you know (including in public spaces online) you can call the police on 101 or report online. In an emergency of if a crime is taking place now, always call 999.
