Fairfield City - Community Safety and Crime Prevention

Fairfield City - Community Safety and Crime Prevention Fairfield City Council prioritises information, education and awareness on Community Safety and Crime What is Community Safety and Crime Prevention?

Fairfield City Council (FCC) has a long-standing commitment to improving community safety and reducing crime in Fairfield City. Since 1998, Council's Crime Prevention and Community Safety Program has led the implementation of many crime prevention and community safety initiatives. FCC employs a range of strategies to ensure information, educations and awareness on Community Safety and Crime Preven

tion Projects is provided to the community. A range of strategies must be used to reduce the incidence of crime as no strategy individually can effectively address all the factors that influence crime. The following is the range of crime prevention strategies:
• Early intervention/developmental - this strategy is based around the provision of support at critical times in social, physical and mental development to prevent later offending
• Community development - this strategy is based around a combination of programs aimed at building up communities to be able to address their own social problems
• Situational/environmental - based around the improvement of the physical environment in which people live and reducing the opportunity of crime through effective urban design and planning
• Law enforcement - involves investigating and arresting offenders to prevent repeat offending and deter potential offenders. Community safety is more than just the level of crime; it is also about how safe people feel in their community, a feeling that can be influenced by many factors. To create a safer environment for people to work, live and play in, all members of the community must work together. Central to the success of the Program has been the strong partnerships that have been formed with a range of stakeholders, including government and non-government agencies, police, businesses and residents. This page will promote Community Safety Projects, Provide important safety information and share this information with partner organisations such as the the NSW Police Force.

The misuse of nitrous oxide, also known as ‘nangs’ or ‘laughing gas’, has been linked to serious health risks, including neurological damage, vitamin B12 deficiency, and paralysis.

From November 2026, new regulations to limit access to nitrous oxide for non-legitimate use will start. The regulations will ensure businesses who require nitrous oxide for legitimate food preparation, medical, industrial and other lawful purposes can continue to access it.

Directly affected stakeholders will be supported to understand the new requirements and to implement the reforms.

Scams are becoming increasingly difficult to identify as cyber criminals use advanced technology, artificial intelligence, and sophisticated tactics to create convincing messages and websites. Scammers often exploit urgency, trust, and familiarity to pressure people into acting quickly without taking time to verify requests.

Scams Awareness Week (24–28 August) is an important reminder that you don't need to be a cyber security expert to stay safe. Simple actions such as pausing before responding, verifying unexpected requests, and reporting suspicious activity early can prevent scams from causing harm.

✔ Stop before you click, reply, or pay.
✔ Check requests through a trusted channel.
✔ Verify unexpected messages, invoices, or payment requests.
✔ Report suspicious emails and scams promptly.

This , we're joining the National Anti-Scam Centre in urging everyone to remember three powerful words:
🔴 Stop.
🟡 Check.
🟢 Protect.

Anyone can be scammed, but together we can fight back ➡️ https://www.scamwatch.gov.au/research-and-resources/scams-awareness-week-2025
