Scotland CommuniTea events
Celebrating Crimestoppers' 30th anniversary
To celebrate our 30th anniversary and new brand, we've launched a series of ‘CommuniTea’ events in Scotland, inviting people for a cuppa and a chat to find out about how they can speak up about crime, 100% anonymously.
Supported by Scotmid Co-operative, partners are equipping community groups from all over Scotland with tea hampers, filled with free food and refreshments to help them celebrate our birthday.
Communities are at the heart of Crimestoppers and we value their support in helping to make Scotland a safer place to live. In Scotland alone, 15,718 pieces of actionable information were received by Crimestoppers in the year 2017/18, a 17% increase on the previous financial year.
With a network of volunteers spread right across the UK, the events have been running throughout the summer and are continuing this autumn.

“Scotland continues to be a safe place to live with recorded crime at its lowest level for 44 years. The Scottish Government’s vision is of a safe, just and resilient country where people can live their lives safe from harm.
“Crimestoppers provides a vital service and these Communitea events are an excellent way to build support for the organisation and increase public awareness of how it can help make Scotland’s communities safer.
“Crimestoppers' contribution to reducing crime over the past 30 years has been invaluable and I would like to congratulate them on their anniversary.”
“Scotmid are proud to support Crimestoppers Scotland and the brilliant CommuniTea events. As a community convenience retailer, Scotmid stores are situated right at the heart of local areas across Scotland and our core purpose is to serve communities and to improve people’s everyday lives. So helping to ensure our stores and the surrounding areas are safe and welcoming is a key part of that, which fits perfectly with Crimestoppers Scotland’s ethos.”
