Safety is paramount to the growth and advancement of any town, suburb or city worldwide. Although it's the mandate of the government in place to supply sufficient policing, sometimes it just isn't enough. This is where the role of community policing plays a pivotal role in ensuring areas remain nurturing and holistic environments. Where residents play their part in enabling their suburbs, towns or communities to remain the best they can possibly be for years to come.
Earlier this month the area of Akasia opened a community policing forum office at the Wonderpark Shopping Centre in Akasia in order to ensure that more due vigilance is displayed by concerned residents in the region to ensure the location continues to be a great suburb in which to live. This is according to a local community newspaper's website the Pretoria North Rekord online.
"The Akasia sector 2 community policing forum (CPF) opened its offices at Wonderpark shopping centre on Friday, 10 November. Secretary Jubulani Sibanyoni said the space was provided free of charge by mall management. He said: "It will enable SAPS and CPF to work together with the mall to make the community safer." -https://rekordnorth.co.za/115633/akasia-cpf-office-launched-at-wonderpark/

One such company that sees the benefit of being apart of the Akasia suburb situated not far from the central areas of Pretoria is leading property agency Century 21. The regarded company has many available residential properties throughout all the major epicentres of the country.

Community Policing has become integral to the safety of many of South Africa's most affluent suburbs and towns. Some of the locations in which they are found include Westville KZN, certain areas within Johannesburg and Gauteng and even coastal towns such as Jeffreys Bay.
A basic definition of a functional community policing forum is as follows:
"Community Policing is a strategy aimed at achieving more effective crime control, reducing fears of crime, improving quality of life, and improving police service and legitimacy. These goals are achieved through a proactive reliance on community resources, seeking to improve crime causing conditions. The police and the community are encouraged to work closely together to solve problems of crime, physical and social disorder, and neighbourhood decay". -http://cvwa.org.za/community-police-forum/
