What Does Citizens on Patrol (COP) Cornwall DO?
- We DRIVE around, always in groups of two volunteers together. We patrol businesses, streets and public areas.
- We act as “EYES & EARS” for the RCMP: If we notice any concerns or suspicious activity we contact the RCMP
- Our presence is a deterrent against crime.
- COP Reports are viewed by RCMP to note trends/issues.
- We DON’T intervene directly -we simply call RCMP
