The places of worship (PoW) protective security funding scheme is a government commitment in the 2016-2020 hate crime action plan. This scheme is intended to reduce the risk and impact of hate crime at places of worship and associated faith community centres.
The scheme provides funding for protective security measures, such as CCTV, fencing, and intruder alarms, to places of worship and associated faith community centres that are vulnerable to hate crime.
You can submit an application for the installation of up to 3 protective security measures from 4 June 2021 until 23:59 on 2 July 2021.

Community Safety News

The National Fraud Intelligence Bureau (NFIB) have issued an alert to warn members of the public about the risk of holiday fraud and ticketing scams following the announcement of the governments planned road map out of lockdown.

Any significant demands for holidays are likely to be exploited by scammers leading to an increase in holiday fraud.

Here are some top tips around holiday scams from 'Which':

Incredibly cheap online deal - If the price for your flight or holiday is considerably cheaper than the average cost elsewhere, you should be suspicious.

Look out for logos - Looking out for official logos is a good way to check the authenticity of holiday booking, travel agent and tour operators. Seeing the ATOL logo in your travel company's brochure, adverts and website should mean your holiday will be protected.

Watch out for fake listings - Check out if a property exists by using Google Street View to see the property and the area. You can also use Google Images Reverse Search to see if the interior photo's have been used elsewhere on the Internet for other property listings.

Bank Transfer - If a bank transfer is your only option for payment, this should set alarm bells ringing. You should be especially cautious if you're asked to pay directly into a private individuals bank account. Not only does this show no bank is prepared to provide credit card facilities, but if your dealing with a scammer - it will be almost impossible to get your money back.

Check online reviews - Do a thorough search to check the company's credentials. Check multiple reviews for information on other people's experiences and take note of any warnings about the company.
