#YOUSAIDWEDID

Listening to community concerns is at the very core of what we do in Neighbourhood Policing. We rely on members of the public telling us what’s happening so as that we can take action!

#yousaid – Vehicles causing anti-social behaviour in the area of #Bagworth was a concern.

#wedid – We have developed specific and targeted proactive patrol plans to ensure that the locations given, are regularly patrolled by both marked vehicles, and officers on foot. Today we have been able to work with the ranger to build gather further information in relation to involved vehicles.

#yousaid – Speeding across the beat area was an issue.

#wedid – Working collaboratively with the Road Safety Unit from the safety partnership team, they have today been on the A447 and will be present in various other areas in the locality throughout the coming weeks.

#yousaid – Concerns have been raised in relation to members of the public, attending the Hill Hole Quarry, #Markfield. This is a vast open water space which presents dangers to those who opt to climb the fencing. This is NOT permitted and can be extremely dangerous, particularly as water temperatures are much lower than expected along with unanticipated dangers beneath the water.

#wedid – We have conducted foot patrols at the location, to ensure that fence lines are secure and there were no persons present. Continued attendance along with LFRS, where demand allows, will be continuing throughout the coming months.

#yousaid – Youths have been setting fires in the #Groby Pool area, causing residents concern for safety.

#wedid – Patrols at the location throughout the day, to ensure that person’s present were enjoying the area as intended.

#ENGAGEMENT

As well as relying on your reporting to us for information gathering, we seek all opportunities to engage with members of the public at locally advertised events. Today we have been able to visit the #Bagworth spring fayre and the #NewboldVerdon table top sale.

Supporting community events in this way, enables relationship and rapport building, and provides an opportunity to establish any community concerns at a local level.

Mallory Park held their Huggys Auto jumble where over 100 motorcyclists and classic car enthusiasts were in attendance, ensuring village disruption is kept to a minimum, attending and engaging with visitors was a priority today.

During this afternoon there was a reported two vehicle RTC in #Nailstone. Officers’ quick attendance along with LFRS & EMAS ensured vehicle occupants were swiftly moved to a place of safety and their medical needs tended to. We apologise for any inconvenience caused whilst dealing with this.

We at Bosworth hope you enjoy the rest of the Saturday sunshine safely
