CoSafe Security Service for residents

Going on holiday? A CoSafe patrol officer can drive past your property while you are away and report anything suspicious to you, an emergency contact, or the police. For more details or to request this service, please visit CoSafe Holiday Watch service.

In consultation with WA Police and reports made by local residents, CoSafe officers conduct targeted vehicle and foot patrols around the City of Cockburn to deter further criminal and unwanted activity.

If it doesn’t look or feel right, but no criminal offences have been committed, CoSafe can conduct a patrol of the area to assess. 

If you report a car:

• explain why the vehicle and driver are acting suspiciously, e.g. driving slowly and pulling randomly into driveways
• describe the car using the make, model, colour, registration and any distinguishing features, e.g. car stickers, broken light.

 If you report a person:

• explain why the person is acting suspiciously, e.g. shining a torch through windows
• describe the person - gender, colour/length/type of hair, complexion, build, facial hair, tattoos/scars, age and type of clothing.

Anti-social behaviour:

• General disturbance
• Acting in an unacceptable way.

CoSafe can attend to conduct a patrol and speak with the person or group if required.

Please report and instances of graffiti to a City facility or any City-owned equipment via the report graffiti form.
