Police - Croydon What number do I ring?
22nd Mar 2010

Police - What Number do I call?

___________________________EMERGENCY______________________________

In an emergency always call 999. An emergency is when a crime is happening now, someone suspected of a crime is nearby, someone is injured, being threatened or in danger.

For example: call 999 if your house is being burgled, or there is a suspicious caller at your door (artifice / distraction burglary).
Or if your car is being stolen (or the suspect is nearby) call 999.

______________NON - EMERGENCY________________

Call 0300 123 1212 when you need to report crime that is not an emergency. For example: If your come home and find your house has been burgled, call 0300 123 1212 If your car has been stolen call 0300 123 1212  


LONDON AMBULANCE SERVICE - FUND RAISING ACTIVITIES ONGOING
22nd Mar 2010

ST JOHN’S AMBULANCE FUNDRAISING IN CROYDON

information from St John Ambulance: A fundraising campaign for St John Ambulance in the London Borough of Croydon will commence from Monday 26 October 2009.  

The local Police in Croydon have also been informed.The campaign, using a team of professional fundraisers who work solely on behalf of St John Ambulance, involves canvassing door to door to talk to residents about the work of St John Ambulance and to encourage their support with a voluntary donation, by Direct Debit only. 

They DO NOT collect cash and are in fact forbidden to do so.

The fundraisers all wear identification badges and sweatshirts/t-shirts bearing the St John Ambulance logo.St John Ambulance is the holder of a House-to-House Order of Exemption (reference CHC/87-7/207-1), which enables us to fundraise in this way.Anyone wishing to confirm the identification of a fundraiser should they be approached should ask for their name and identification number and call 0845 222 11 99.

We appreciate that there may be 'No cold calling' zones in some areas of the borough, which although not intended to prevent legitimate charity fundraising, may create a negative response from some residents in these areas.This form of fundraising is extremely important to us because the more long-term supporters we recruit, the more funds we can raise - and the greater the potential St John Ambulance has to continue with its life-saving activities in our local communities.

For St John Ambulance this is one of our most successful activities. As you will probably know we have to fundraise, as we do not receive Government funding for carrying out our first aid duties.
