Around 2,000 bicycles are reported stolen in Vancouver every year, but only a few get returned to their owners when recovered by police. Why so few? Because many owners don't record and share their bike serial number and description.
​
Help defend against the bike theft epidemic by registering your bike with the 529 Garage bike registry for free - it only takes five minutes!

With grabbers, tongs and bags supplied through the City of Vancouver’s Keep Vancouver Spectacular campaign, teams of volunteers target areas recorded or reported for ongoing littering.
Clean-ups have a huge impact on our local neighbourhoods. Removing litter not only makes the neighbourhood cleaner, it also makes it safer. Research has shown that systematic removal of garbage can greatly reduce crime, vandalism and mischief.
​
Cops & Kids is a free back to school safety event for preschool and elementary school children and their families. It is also an opportunity to promote positive personal interaction between the public, police and other community partners.
​​
Cops & Kids includes VPD patrol officers with their emergency vehicles, the Motorcycle Squad, the Marine Squad, Transit Police Dogs, Vancouver Fire and Rescue Services with their fire truck, and B.C. Ambulance Paramedics with an ambulance.
