Support our Team in Blue

CBCSI, together with the Camps Bay Community Police Forum, Community Who Cares and the Camps Bay Police Service have rolled out our “Blue Team” community upliftment project in October 2020.

This project predominantly helps to provide work opportunities for displaced people who live in shelters, while also having a positive impact on safety in our community.

  • All candidates have been vetted by SAPS

  • Each candidate is provided with an ID and a vest with a unique number on the back. Should any members of the public have a comment or compliment about an individual steward, they can contact [email protected] and easily identify the person using this unique number.

  • All candidates have been provided with a SnapScan account and all tips go directly to the individual

  • Candidates are not employed by CBCSI, but we manage their presence in the area to ensure they will provide polite and friendly assistance

  • Blue Team members have been briefed on how to report suspicious activity to the correct authorities

  • Community Stewards are not security personnel and are not trained to perform a security role, instead they provide eyes and ears on the streets to deter crime and provide early warning to the authorities when suspicious persons or activity is present.
