English Heritage joins forces with Sussex Crimestoppers, National Farmers Union and Sussex Police on a new campaign to help fight rural crime.
This two-pronged initiative consists of a video resource for colleges to use in lessons with sixth formers and a graphic storyboard for use throughout the wider community. Both urge the public's help to keep Sussex a safe place to live and work, protecting our rural way of life for generations to come.
Sixth formers are asked to lend their eyes and ears in a DVD that features victims, including young farmers, speaking out about the impact of rural crime. It will be used by schools liaison officers to engage pupils, along with a hard-hitting graphic storyboard featuring the many guises of rural crime, asking all of us to pass on information about crimes anonymously via Crimestoppers.
The storyboard will be distributed throughout Sussex and the video will be available online in the near future.
