New CCTV Cameras Installed to Enhance Safety in Looe

Looe Town Council has installed a new CCTV system at key locations across the town, funded by the Council as part of its ongoing commitment to community safety.

The investment has been made to help deter crime and anti-social behaviour, support the protection of residents, businesses and visitors, and provide valuable assistance to the police when investigating incidents.

The new system provides upgraded technology and improved coverage of key locations across the town, enhancing the effectiveness of the CCTV network and supporting the monitoring of public spaces.

Looe Mayor, Stephen Remington, said “I’m very pleased that the Town Council has led the project to extend the town’s CCTV coverage to include the busy beach and promenade area. We are most grateful for East Looe Town Trust’s cooperation. Public safety is our main concern, and we will not hesitate to share any footage with the police if there is a repeat of the trouble we experienced in May. “

Trust Manager at East Looe Town Trust, Jane Day, added “East Looe Town Trust and Looe Town Council have a long history of working together for the good of the town, and the installation of CCTV on the seafront area is the latest collaboration.  East Looe Town Trust are delighted to support the town-wide CCTV system as it is a boost to keeping the whole town a welcoming and safe place for residents and visitors to enjoy.”

The Council hopes the upgraded system will provide reassurance to the public while acting as a visible deterrent to those who may seek to commit crime or cause disruption within the town.

Looe Town Council remains committed to investing in initiatives that support community safety and enhance the quality of life for all those who live, work and visit the town.
