Harrow have started sending messages like this to help in prevent crime. I think it’s an excellent way of reaching people.
I guess, the downside is that you then may feel more fear and it’s not nice to live with fear. However, we also have a responsibility to behave in a particular way right? For that reason, I guess a little prevention goes a long way. No police burglary, involvement, calls to your insurance provider, no forms, no ‘stock take’ etc. etc. etc.
For this reason I am forwarding this message to you. I hope you find it useful.
This is a Ring Master message from harrow police.
