Update

Clavering is one of the largest neighbourhoods in the county, yet it remains a low crime area and a lovely place to live.

We, like other areas, do get targeted by bogus callers who usually pick on the vulnerable members of the community, mainly the elderly. Please keep your doors and windows secure and always ask for identification. If people knock at your door, do not let strangers into your house without checking them out first. If you have a door chain, always use it. If you have any suspicions about the caller then contact police immediately.

Additionally in relation to house burglaries - please note
Uttlesford has one of the lowest recorded rates of domestic burglary with only 1.3 burglaries per 1000 households in the last quarter.
That is amazingly low, and we are well placed when measured against the most similar group of districts nationally.
Rather than be satisfied with this, we are committed to continuing to reduce the number of dwelling burglaries even further. Burglary is a horrible crime from which we are keen to have as few victims as possible.
We recently discovered that many burglaries are being committed by entry through UPVC back doors. These doors have a number of different locking mechanisms; some can be locked by simply lifting the handle - in others, lifting the handle drives across a closing bolt, but a key is needed to actually lock the door.
It has become clear from speaking to recent victims, that when they'd thought they were locking their doors, they were in fact just closing them; with the result that the door could still be opened from the outside. This mechanism is also available on conservatories and can be used with wooden doors, so this message applies to everyone.
Please make sure you know how your locks operate so that when you are locking up, you are in fact locking up. If you need any assistance with door locks or are unclear at all about this message then please speak to our crime reduction advisor, Peter Caulfield on 0300 333 4444 or within Essex on 101 who will be happy to advise you.

Peter Caulfield added, "About 30% of all house burglaries are via unlocked or open doors and windows. All most burglars have to do is try a few handles until they find one which opens a door. Please take note and don’t become a statistic."

In addition, a common crime trend at the moment is metal theft, both scrap metal and metal used for other purposes. Please be careful in securing your valuables and metals and report any incidents to us.

If you see anything suspicious and there are vehicles involved, please try to make a note of the registration number and vehicle details as this will help us greatly in catching those who may be responsible for crime.

We have reached the time of year when hare coursing is again in season. These incidents cause a great deal of damage to farmer's fields as well as the illegal poaching and killing of the hares themselves. If you witness activity that you believe is hare coursing, please gather as much detail as you can about the people and vehicles involved and contact the police, detailing clearly what you have seen. This will give us the best chance of catching those responsible

You can take action in a number of ways to help make your neighbourhood a safer place to live, work and visit.
