The Community Safety Series returns this October to enhance the safety and wellbeing of residents.
Workshops, pop-up events and online subsidies are on offer this October for the City of Kwinana’s Community Safety Series.
The month-long Spring Community Safety Series is designed to give Kwinana residents the knowledge and tools to feel safer and more connected.
This year builds on last year’s success with a mix of workshops, information sessions, and hands-on activities covering everything from home security and emergency preparedness to road safety, online safety, and neighbourhood connection.
Mayor Peter Feasey said the Series was a chance to pick up practical tips, hear from local experts, talk with Police, and discover simple ways to look out for one another while strengthening our community spirit.
“This year, people can also take part in a survey to highlight the top three safety concerns in their suburb with the survey open from now until the end of October,” Mayor Feasey said.
He said community safety was a top priority for Kwinana residents, as is identified in the City’s Strategic Community Plan.
“We invite you to have a free cuppa with your local Police face-to-face, get involved in the Bike Festival, or attend a Disaster Preparedness Forum to help you be ready for bushfire season and other possible emergencies,” he said.
“We will also have CCTV subsidies on offer, and Secure PL8 running again to prevent the theft of license plates.
“Community safety is everyone’s responsibility, and it isn’t just about reducing crime on the streets.
“It’s about being ready for emergencies, keeping an eye out for one another, improving road safety, and strengthening your home security, so as a City we are committed to improving people’s sense of security and safety,” he said.
