Schoolchildren will be jailed, weathermen will predict crime hotspots and sniffer dogs will give displays in Keighley this week.

The crazy antics are all part of a week-long Keighley Partners Against Crime campaign with a serious anti-crime message.

Organised by Keighley Police, Keighley Anti-Crime Partnership and Keighley Single Regeneration bosses, events are taking place throughout the week.

Today BBC TV's Look North weatherman Paul Hudson will be highlighting crime hotspots on his tailor-made weather map. And 60 schoolchildren will greet him, waving flags which they have designed themselves giving criminals a cold front.

Events running from Monday to Saturday include an interactive prison cell at Oakbank School. Pupils will have a chance to sniff out what life is like in a real prison cell, with a model that looks, smells and feels like the real thing for the scheme "Prison, me, no way".

Superintendent Mark Whyman, of Keighley Police, said: "The police and our partners are committed to making a difference and reducing crime in the Keighley area. Everyone has a part to play, but our campaign is to reduce the fear of crime by highlighting the many anti-crime projects that are alive and well in Keighley."

Crime prevention officers, trading standards officers, councillors and street wardens will be patrolling the streets to pass on the crime prevention message.

Airedale Shopping Centre will have displays and information stands about safer transport, Drugs, hate crime, domestic violence, police recruitment and the Probation Service.

During the week the Bradford District Drugs Team will be raiding homes as part of the Crackdown initiative to stop the flow of drugs onto the streets.
