POLICE officers were so pleased with the success of their crime prevention day that they plan to hold another one soon.

The Hayes and Coney Hall Safer Neighbourhood Team held the event at the Focus DIY Store in Croydon Road, Coney Hall.

Shoppers took the opportunity to speak to officers and learn useful tips on how not to become a victim of crime.

The next crime prevention day will be held at the same store from 11am to 3pm on October 3.

PCSO Katie Burge, who is a member of the safer neighbourhood team, said: “This event was really well received by shoppers and local residents alike.”
