STOP Thief STOP Crime
The Crimestoppers Trust is a charity. The only charity which leads to the conviction of criminals. It is not part of the Police force. It is operated by local boards, the members of which are all unpaid volunteers. It works to bring together the Police, the Media, Local Authorities, the community and Business in the fight against crime. Crimestoppers are ordinary citizens who do not want to see their lifestyle, their freedom from fear and their community threatened by criminal activity. Its indisputable strength is that it offers callers with information on criminals or criminal activity the guarantee of freedom from retribution because calls are anonymous, they are not recorded and cannot be traced.
