Public Safety Partnerships in Action

Darpan News Desk, 28 Mar, 2017 04:56 PM
  • Public Safety Partnerships in Action
Learning how to keep our neighbourhoods safe is the focus of a series of family friendly Town Centre Events hosted by the City’s Public Safety Office. Starting with the first Town Centre Event today at the SFU Surrey Campus and Central City Mall, other sessions will be held in Guildford, South Surrey, Cloverdale, and Fleetwood in April and May.
 
“The Town Centre Events are a way for our residents to get practical tips for their safety in an open, engaging and interactive setting,” said Terry Waterhouse, Public Safety Director. “Since the launch of the City’s Public Safety Strategy last October, we have been working with our partners on a series of events that will get the word out about our new programs and encourage participation wherever possible. Our goal is to encourage everyone, our youth, our newcomers, our seniors, and families to get involved. ”
 
Over 20 City departments and partner organizations are on hand to offer tips and information on topics ranging from crime prevention to personal safety, transportation safety, emergency preparedness, child and youth programs, volunteer opportunities and various community services.
 
A full list of locations and additional details can be found here.
