A new CCTV hub providing a 24/7 concierge service for all the high rise flats across Fife has been officially opened.
A £360,000 investment from Fife Council, the hub is based at the council's Halbeath depot and will enhance the service already provided for tenants and residents in Fife's high rise flats.
Fife Councillor Altany Craik explained: "The new hub means we are now able to deliver a 24/7 service to our tenants and residents using the latest technology.
"I'm delighted to officially open this fantastic new resource. This is something that tenants have been asking for and I'm confident the new service will help make them feel more safe and secure at home."
Fife Council housing staff will be working shifts to provide cover into the evening, at weekends and through the night, monitoring the CCTV in each block from the centralised Hub and carrying out regular foot patrols out of hours so issues can be dealt with on the spot.
Service manager Joan Lamie added: "We are now able to respond more quickly to any incidents and will continue to work closely with other services to address issues in the blocks. The CCTV footage will also help us investigate reports of vandalism, anti-social behaviour and fly tipping and keep areas safe."
