Crimestoppers' 20th Anniversary

2008 marks an important milestone for Crimestoppers which was established twenty years ago in the UK.

Crimestoppers' 20th anniversarySince 1988, the charity has developed as a vital piece in the crime-fighting jigsaw, working in partnership with the police and other law enforcement agencies in helping to get serious criminals brought to justice. We are proud of achievements which have included an operational HQ for 24-hour call-handling in Godstone and the hugely popular ‘Most Wanted' website.

We hope to have an even greater impact on crime-solving over the next twenty years.
