Welcome to the Criminal Information Bureau Limited Website formerly known as the Criminal Information Agency. Our comprehensive crime site covers many different areas of crime such as crime prevention, crime awareness, crime intervention, and understanding the consequences of crime. The basis and the emphasis of this dedicated crime site is to bring all information related to crime through one portal so that the user can search and find specific information at the click of a button. bob@cia-uk.co.uk

With crime being such a wide a varied subject we aim to add new areas of crime to our site such as a dedicated section aimed at helping victims of crime, another new area will be to allow the local communities to add new crime prevention initiatives to our website so that others communities around the country can share their good practice crime prevention ideas. With the website currently running into thousands of individual pages we advice the user to search the site via our own search engine, Crimigle, which is situated in the top right corner of the site.
