CASAC (Community Action and Support Against Crime) has increased the reach of its unique anti-crime email alert system to cover the following areas - Airedale, Ferry Fryston, Townville, Redhill, Half Acres, Glasshoughton, Whitwood & Cutsyke, Whitwood Mere and the town centre, enabling residents to receive notification of suspicious or criminal activity in their area. It will also be used by the local Police to keep the public advised of activity and successes in the area

CASAC have teamed up with Castleford Neighbourhood Policing Team to launch our CHECKPOINT service in Castleford and Airedale. By calling a local rate number residents can be directed to a local company which has been vetted by West Yorkshire Trading Standards. There is no cost to anyone calling the service.

CASAC  has received a government grant of £300,000 from the Safer Homes fund to help protect over 2000 homes in Leeds, Bradford and Calderdale against burglars.

Lord Mayor of Leeds, Councillor Judith Elliott attended the launch of CASAC Crime Alert and took the opportunity to send out the first alert.
