More cash to help areas fight burglary

£3 million package of support will help 35 areas tackle and prevent burglary and personal robbery

The Vigilance programme was announced this week by Home Office Minister Alan Campbell and includes the provision of pre-emptive support, training and additional resources for areas across the country that have started to see rises in burglary and robbery over the last 12 months.

It also includes a crackdown on known offenders in those areas with more proactive methods including; 

  • surprise home visits by police officers;
  • text messages reminding them to turn up to meetings with probation officers and job interviews; and
  • targeting of prisoners released from short term sentences who might be more likely to reoffend.
