Safer Neighbourhood Sergeant Sarah Anderson said: “Theft of car number plates can be hugely inconvenient, and stolen plates can subsequently be used by criminals for offences such as bilking (theft of petrol) or evading speed camera fines.”

Sergeant Anderson explained: “It takes just minutes for the screws to be fitted and the service is completely free of charge.”

The officers will also be chatting to residents and asking what they would like to see Hertfordshire Constabulary focus on where they live.
