CDRP: Crime & Disorder Reduction Partnerships
AlertBox helps all those working in crime reduction to help communities to
help themselves. AlertBox networks are accountable, sustainable, scalable
and re-deployable.
AlertBox employs digital wireless technology to provide simple and quick
communication between residential or business neighbours. It enables
individuals in their homes or at their workplace to broadcast warning
messages or requests for help in an emergency – all at the press of a button.
For crime and reduction partnerships, the benefits of establishing an AlertBox
network include:
The reduction of crime and the fear of crime
The active encouragement of community
regeneration
A powerful deterrent to repeated crime and
disturbance
Improve communication between the public
and law-enforcement authorities
Promotes better detection rates and resource
management
AlertBox networks records statistical data for analysis and will enable
authorities to:
Identify precise time of incidents
Assess the nature of alerts
Analyse frequency of use
Identify crime and disorder hot spots
Assess trends over time
AlertBox networks may be funded from either capital or revenue budgets.
