Police Crime Prevention Initiatives (Police CPI) has issued a statement regarding refugees arriving in the country

The statement

A ‘Keeping safe in your neighbourhood’ publication is available as part of a package for volunteers across the UK as they welcome refugees and to help them settle and integrate once they arrive.

This publication has been jointly developed by the Community Sponsorship Team at the Home Office and Police Crime Prevention Initiatives (Police CPI) and gives tips and advice around how refugees can keep themselves, their homes and their belongings safe.

The publication is one of a number provided by the charity Reset as part of a welcome pack, designed to be shared with the refugees supported through community sponsorship upon their arrival in the community and supplementing the ‘Welcome to the UK’ booklet that is provided during the arrival process.
The ‘Keeping safe in your neighbourhood’ publication is available to download for free in both English and Arabic.

Michael Brooke, Deputy Chief Operating Officer at Police Crime Prevention Initiatives said: “We were delighted to provide assistance to help the Home Office and Reset with the Community Sponsorship process.

The guide is not designed to be an exhaustive guide, but it does cover a broad range of subjects and contains up-to-date crime prevention advice to assist as displaced families settle into life in the UK.”
