A search uncovered:

🚨 Community Notice for Parents & Guardians 🚨

We’ve recently seen a noticeable increase in young people using E-Scooters across our area. While we understand the appeal, we are becoming increasingly concerned about the way some of these scooters are being used.
Many of the riders we encounter are underage and are unaware that:

Privately owned E-Scooters are not legal to use on public roads, pavements, or public spaces.
Failing to stop when requested by police, or riding away, may result in traffic-related offences being committed.
Riding without due care or consideration can also put the rider and others at serious risk of injury.

We’re asking parents and guardians to please:

✅ Speak to your children about the rules surrounding E-Scooter use
✅ Make them aware of the legal implications and their responsibilities
✅ Ensure they understand the importance of listening to police instructions if approached

Our aim is to keep everyone safe, not to criminalise young people. However, continued misuse may lead to enforcement action, we will be seizing the scooters and further consequences.

Thank you for your support in helping keep our community safe.

We would like to make local residents aware of recent incidents of burglary during the day. It’s easy to forget that thieves can quickly target an open window or door, and be in and out of your property before you realise.

With the hot weather it's natural to open up windows and doors to let out some of the warm air, unfortunately with that it presents an easy opportunity for thieves. This week we have had several confirmed burglaries where the offender(s) has gained access via an open window or door and taken items within.

Make sure you deny the thieves any easy opportunities:

🏡 If you’re out in the back garden, close any windows at the front of the house and lock the front door, as you may not hear someone coming through an open window or door at the front.
🔑 Keep your valuables safe and hidden, and store keys in a safe place out of sight.
🚪 If you leave the house for any reason, make sure all doors and windows are closed and locked properly.
🌻 Keep your garden secure and fit a garden gate lock to stop thieves snooping around unseen at the back of your house.
🪜 Keep tools and ladders locked away. Make sure your shed is secure.
🌲 Simple landscaping like a gravel path or thorny shrubs can also act as a deterrent.
🚗 And don’t forget to secure your car in warm weather – don’t leave windows open, doors unlocked, or have valuables on display.

Many thanks,
Sam 12829
