Mind Your Street Ltd was founded in 2008. Our aim is to make a real difference to households and communities by helping them reduce crime.

Did you know that the UK is the most burgled country in Europe?
- In 2006 there were 11.3m crimes
- The cost of crime is estimated at £60b / year.

Mind Your Street is an online community which uses social networking to employ situational crime prevention techniques. When implemented  these effectively reduce the opportunity for crime. The site allows individual households and neighbourhoods to identify their real security needs and to make improvements in a highly convenient and cost-effective manner. Mind Your Street lets individuals and neighbourhoods optimise their security efforts relative to the actual threat posed. Many of the community features and benefits are free and hardware - such as home CCTV - may be purchased online and easily integrated into the user setup when required.

This low cost approach to crime reduction benefits users by helping to build vigilant communities regardless of social barriers or time constraints. The site is community driven, with many tools utilising social capital and being populated with information generated by the community itself.

The management team has over 50 year’s experience, and is complemented by a strong team of advisors with expertise in crime prevention, business management and leadership.
