Good Evening Resident
Chelmsley Wood Team Newsletter
Today PCSO Karen hung up her boots after 25yrs working for West Midlands Police. Karen is well loved by residents and colleagues alike and will be missed on Chelmsley Wood. Thank you for your service to the Community Karen, we wish you well in your future retirement plans. Karen might not be patrolling our area anymore but STREETWATCH are.
StreetWatch is a community-led project. It’s made up of groups of volunteers who are at least 18 years old. The groups go out and patrol their area for at least two hours every month. The patrols help to stop crime and anti-social behaviour. They also help people in the area get to know each other and encourage others to take an active interest in keeping their area safe. Across the force we have 848 members making up 128 groups – who all kindly agree to take part in a minimum of two hours of activity a month. Chelmsley Wood Streetwatch Team received nominations into the Neighbourhood Watch Network's Volunteer Recognition Awards 2026! I have taken the below extract from the email they received from the organisers.
