Trusted Protection in Woburn Sands

Responding to what local police have flagged

The Danesborough and Walton team has three published priorities, and two of them touch Woburn Sands directly: drug-related nuisance at The Wick and a run of fires. For premises owners, those translate into risks of damage, arson and loitering after dark. Mobile patrols with GPS-logged checks, CCTV monitoring and alarm response address all three. Burglary is also prominent here, with 53 offences recorded within a mile, so locking-up checks and key holding are worth considering.
