Stay ‘In the Know’ and report it
17th of January, 2022
Recently Scott Fairclough from the police rural task force and PCSO(Police Community support officer) Sian Coffey introduced themselves at a parish council meeting, they outlined their roles and explained how we all can help by reporting activity.
By Phone –
Emergency 999
Always call 999 if the crime is being committed now, the offender is nearby, or if you or other people are in danger or injured.
Non- Emergency 101 – for less urgent incidents

It was encouraging to hear Sabden has a low crime rate and it is generally a very safe area. Unfortunately, what was clear was people are quick to talk about concerns/activity but do not report them- these officers are noticing lots of comment on Facebook community pages but have never had any reports.
Remember -IF IT IS WORTHY OF COMMENT ON SOCIAL MEDIA IT IS IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO TELL THE POLICE
‘In the Know-Lancashire’ is an emailing and texting service whereby the police keep you informed of activity within the area, they believe that by giving people useful information and making it a two way process they can make our communities active participants in helping to prevent and detect crime and anti-social behaviour.
‘Stay In The Know’ gives you the chance to get information from Lancashire Police, Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service, Neighbourhood Watch and our other partners.
