Team London Bridge are proud to support Counter
Terrorism Policing’s Action Counters Terrorism (ACT) Campaign to encourage the
public to help the police tackle terrorism and save lives by reporting
suspicious behaviour and activity.
Communities
defeat terrorism and with the enduring
terrorist threat, it is now more important than ever that everyone – including London
Bridge’s business community – plays their part in tackling terrorism. Our
actions could save lives.

What should I report?
Like other criminals,
terrorists need to plan. You can report suspicious activity or behaviour - anything that seems out of place, unusual or just doesn’t seem to fit in with
everyday life - in confidence at www.gov.uk/ACT or it’s an emergency call 999.
1.
Research
- Meetings, training and planning can
take place anywhere. Do you know someone who travels but is vague about where
they’re going?
- Do you know someone with passports or
other documents in different names, for no obvious reason?
- Do you know someone who looks at
extremist material, including on the so-called Dark Web, or shares and creates
content that promotes or glorifies terrorism?
- Have you noticed someone embracing or
actively promoting hateful ideas or an extremist ideology?
2.
Gathering
materials
- Suspicious materials can be ordered
online as well as in store. Have you noticed someone receiving deliveries for
unusual items bought online?
- If you work in commercial vehicle
hire or sales, has a sale or rental seemed unusual?
- Have you noticed someone buying large
or unusual quantities of chemicals, fertilisers or gas cylinders for no obvious
reason?
- Have you noticed someone acquiring
illegal firearms or other weapons or showing an interest in obtaining them?
3.
Storing
materials
- Terrorists need to store equipment
while preparing for an attack. Have you noticed anyone storing large amounts of
chemicals, fertilisers or gas cylinders?
- Have you noticed anyone storing
illegal firearms or objects that could potentially be weapons?
4.
Hostile
Reconnaissance
- Observation and surveillance help
terrorists plan attacks. Have you witnessed anyone taking pictures or notes of
security arrangements or CCTV?
5.
Financing
- Cheque and credit card fraud are ways
of generating cash. Have you noticed any suspicious or unusual bank
transactions?
