Local is lekker!
The area of Chatsworth is making many on the East Coast proud after their Community Policing Forum (CFP) bagged an award for being the best in the country at keeping their area safe. According to TimesLive, the CFP covers over 13 suburbs within the south of Durban.
The KwaZulu-Natal Community Safety and Liaison website describes a CFP as a group which helps to control crime within an area by partnering and working with the police
While crime may still be taking place in the area, the CFP is working hard to tackle problems such as drugs, domestic abuse, and petty crime.
