Malvern Hills Update from Insp Dave Wise (16 Jan 25)
🚔 Neighbourhood Policing Video Update 🚔
Happy New Year! Here’s an update from Inspector Dave Wise and the Malvern Hills Safer Neighbourhood Teams:
✅ New Officers: We’ve welcomed new team members in Malvern and Tenbury Wells.
✅ Prolific Shoplifter Jailed: A nationally active professional shoplifter has been brought to justice, a great result for businesses and residents alike.
✅ Youth Scrutiny Panel: Sgt Perkins has launched a new initiative involving Malvern St James pupils to bring young people’s perspectives into our policing priorities.
💡 Protect Yourself from Banking Fraud: Fraudsters are becoming increasingly sophisticated.
Remember:
🔷 Your bank will never ask for your PIN, passwords, or to move money to a 'safe account.'
🔷 Be cautious of unexpected emails, texts, or calls asking for personal information—always verify directly with your bank using official contact details.
🔷 Regularly check your bank statements for unfamiliar transactions.
🔷 If you suspect fraud, report it immediately to your bank and to the police via https://orlo.uk/5pTFV
Thank you for your support as we work together for a safer Malvern Hills in 2025!
