Thank you for taking the local priority survey recently, your ongoing feedback about local issues of concern is vital in order to enable us to target resources effectively. Although you did not raise Cycle theft as a concern in your last feedback, this issue has been raised by other members of your local area so we thought you would also like to receive this update.

The Maidstone Police Neighbourhood Team will be holding a Bike Marking Event at:
Tesco Superstore, Grove Green, Grovewood Drive North, Kent, ME14 5TQ
10:00am – 3:00pm
Bring your bicycle along for free police bike marking and registration with BikeRegister – the National Cycle Database.
Marking your bike helps deter thieves and increases the chances of reuniting stolen bikes with their owners.
We look forward to seeing you there!

General information if you have a bike that we hope is useful:

Report theft of cycles immediately on discovery to police.  Delay in doing so can mean missed opportunities to recover your cycle and prosecute the offender.

If you ever experience this issue or have information regarding an incident, please report it using our online reporting tools at https://www.kent.police.uk, speak to an operator in our Force Communications Room via our online web chat or call the non-emergency number 101.

Alternatively, you can stay 100 per cent anonymous by contacting the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or via their untraceable online form at crimestoppers-uk.org.
