Rural crime is an issue for large areas of the Thames Valley and we know that it can have a huge impact on our rural communities.

However, these crimes tend to go unreported.

We’re reaching out to our rural communities and encouraging you to report anything you’ve seen, however big or small, which can help us tackle agricultural, equine, wildlife and heritage crime.

Did you know that you can report a crime in your area, or pass on any information that you may have, on our website?

It’s quick and easy to do and it can be done whenever is most convenient for you.

After all, you know your community best and you’re most likely to know when something doesn’t feel right.

Whether it’s something suspicious you’ve spotted in your local area or something you’ve overheard which may point to organised crime, we want to hear about it.

It can sometimes be difficult to know whether something that you’ve seen is a crime and whether you should get in touch. But we’d encourage you to contact us, as we can use this information to build a better picture and to target our resources effectively.

By working together, we can prevent opportunistic and organised crimes taking place in our communities.

If you see something, report it on our website: https://www.thamesvalley.police.uk/ro/report/ocr/af/how-to-report-a-crime/
