Sector 4 CPF in Secunda gives safety tips
Sector chairperson urges residents to get involved and to help safeguard their areas.
The Secunda police and CPF members handed out flyers to shoppers and residents in Ext 22’s Sector 4 on November 2.
The flyers provide general safety tips to safeguard your home and vehicles. Sector policing is an approach where a police station service area is divided into smaller, manageable areas known as sectors.
Each sector has a police commander and community volunteers that ensure a safe surrounding.
They always need volunteers. The CPF calls on local businesses, councillors, residents and community leaders to participate in efforts to deal with factors to crime in your sector.
