Crime Prevention Meeting with Local Retailers

Elm Park Safer Neighbourhood Team Hosts Successful Crime Prevention Meeting with Local Retailers

Today, the Elm Park Safer Neighbourhood Team held a successful crime prevention meeting in Elm Park, bringing together local retailers, community partners, and crime prevention specialists. The event featured SelectaDNA, a leading forensic marking company, which demonstrated how property marking technology can help deter offenders and assist police in securing prosecutions.

The meeting was attended by Margaret Mullane MP, representatives from the local authority, and Councillor Barry Muggleston, highlighting the strong partnership approach to tackling crime in the community.

Inspector Connolly from the Elm Park Safer Neighbourhood Team said:
"This meeting marks an important step in strengthening crime prevention measures across Elm Park. Forensic property marking is a proven deterrent and provides vital evidence to support investigations and prosecutions. We encourage all retailers to take part in these initiatives."

The team intends to increase retailer engagement and sign-ups for future community meetings, ensuring that businesses are equipped with effective tools to protect their premises and reduce crime.
