WCCTV's innovative Help Point systems, designed to support Safer Streets initiatives, have been featured on BBC News reports across the East Midlands.
WCCTV's Help Point systems, which have been specifically designed to support Safer Streets initiatives across the UK, have been featured on a major BBC report across the East Midlands.
The news report focused on Ashfield District Council who have installed three Help Points across the Sutton area to improve safety for vulnerable people.
The full report can be viewed via the video below:
WCCTV Help Point systems have been developed in response to the growing threat of violence and attacks on women and girls across the UK.
They provide a refuge point for anyone who feels at risk or threatened, and allows them to activate a panic button and receive immediate support from a local police control room.
The control room operative is then able to assess the situation via a WCCTV Redeployable CCTV Camera, record any activity in the area and dispatch local police to assist if required.
Investment in the systems has been largely driven by the UK government's Safer Streets fund, which has made millions of pounds available to Police and Crime Commissioners over four funding rounds.
Ashfield District Council purchased their systems following a successful grant funding bid by Nottinghamshire's PCC, Caroline Henry (pictured above).
Help Point systems are just one of many ways WCCTV's mobile CCTV systems have been supporting Safer Streets initiatives across the UK.
Below we have highlighted several case studies where WCCTV's cameras have been funded by Safer Streets grants and helped deliver real results for police and local authorities.
