Following a recent spate of break-ins at businesses in Lawley Square, a number of Smart Water signs have been attached to posts around the area in an effort to deter future crime.
SmartWater is a long-lasting forensic marking liquid that, when applied to items, can be traced by police. This marker can’t be seen normally.
Most businesses in the Square have now been issued with SmartWater by Lawley and Overdale Safer Neighbourhood Team, and the Parish Council’s Parish Environmental Team worked in partnership to install the signs.
