Devon and Cornwall Police have seen Crimestopper tips top 2,000 in 12 months.
Information passed to Devon and Cornwall Police from independent charity Crimestoppers saw a rise of 4%.
The charity, which celebrated its 25th anniversary last year, said 2,072 pieces of information were passed to the force between April 2013 and March 2014.
It said the figures highlighted a growing awareness of Crimestoppers and its work in local communities while also demonstrating the significant role the public plays
in the fight against crime.
Stephen Pearce, Crimestoppers chairman in Devon and Cornwall, said: "What these results represent is a continued effort from the public and Crimestoppers to keep our communities in Devon and Cornwall safe and bring wanted criminals to justice.
"I cannot thank our local communities enough for their efforts and for trusting us with their information – and to our committee of volunteers who dedicate so much of their time to ensure we continue the fight to provide a crime-free community.
"With your help, you can make these results even better next year by contacting Crimestoppers anonymously about criminal activity you are aware of by contacting us on 0800 555 111 or through our anonymous online form at www.crimestoppers-uk.org."
Across the UK, information passed onto the police by Crimestoppers increased slightly by just over 1%.
The value of goods recovered from criminals also rose to more than £3.3 million.
Since Crimestoppers was formed in 1988, over 128,000 people have been arrested and charged, while 1.5 million pieces of information have been passed onto law enforcement agencies.
