Wolverhampton Police: Staying Safe This Ramadan 2026

Hello Resident.

Even if your not celebrating Ramadan, we advise all of our community to take a quick look at this advice for safety around the holiday period.

Ramadan Mubarak to everyone in Wolverhampton!

As the holy month begins, we want to make sure it’s a safe, peaceful, and enjoyable time for all our residents. Here’s how we’ll be supporting you—and some simple ways you can help too.

What We’re Doing in Wolverhampton

Extra patrols in busy areas – Our local teams will be out and about around mosques, community centres, and popular evening gathering spots. You’ll see more uniformed officers to reassure residents and deter any trouble.

Working with the community – We’re in regular contact with local mosques, faith leaders, and community groups so we can respond quickly to any concerns.

Keeping Eid celebrations safe – Towards the end of Ramadan, especially on Chaand Raat and Eid, we’ll have extra officers in place to make sure everyone can celebrate safely and that roads stay clear.

How You Can Help

Drive considerately – Traffic can be heavier just before and after Iftar. Please slow down, avoid parking illegally, and watch out for pedestrians crossing to and from mosques.

Look out for each other – If you see unsafe driving, anti-social behaviour, or anything that feels wrong, tell us. Call 101 for non-emergencies, or 999 in an emergency.

Be a good neighbour – Keep noise to a minimum late at night, and leave streets clean after gatherings.

Stay healthy – Drink plenty of water between Iftar and Suhoor, get enough rest, and if you have a health condition, check with your GP before fasting.

Our Message to Wolverhampton

Ramadan is about reflection, kindness, and community spirit. We’re here to make sure everyone feels safe while they worship, gather, and celebrate. If you need us, our local teams are only a call—or a friendly chat on the street—away.

From all of us at Wolverhampton Police: Ramadan Mubarak.
