    Problem Oriented Policing Working in Partnership to Create a Safer

    SAFER HOLIDAY WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP TO CREATE A SAFER HOLIDAY ENVIRONMENT AVON AND SOMERSET CONSTABULARY, PORTISHEAD, ENGLAND, 1999 SUMMARY: The Butlins Family Entertainment Resort, Minehead is a holiday complex standing on a site of 165 acre. It is home to 20 alcohol outlets operating under the umbrella of one Residential On-Licence and over a number of years transposed from a family holiday venue to one that catered for a diverse market. In essence it is a small town without the norms, values and relationships of a traditional community. Every night is a PARTY NIGHT! At the beginning of 1997 there was a coincidental change of local management at both Butlins and the Avon and Somerset Constabulary. Forming an alliance there was a recognition that positive action had to be taken to address the crime problem that existed at the resort predominantly in the categories of burglary, theft, criminal damage, assault, theft of and from motor vehicles and the misuse of drugs. A new beat was created that was co-terminus with the boundaries of the resort and a beat officer selected who possessed the necessary qualities to tackle a long term project and forge ahead if confronted with difficulties. He was empowered and assured the support of the Constabulary in his interaction with Butlins at both operational and strategic levels. Over a period of two years the Constabulary and Butlins worked closely together addressing environmental factors, policies, practices and staff training at the resort that collectively contributed to a 71.5% reduction in crime over that period. Throughout, the SARA model for problem solving was utilised and regularly revisited to generate a series of creative responses that were introduced into the resort.
  • A (Very Personal) History of Barnet and District AC

    A (Very Personal) History of Barnet and District AC

    A (very personal) history of Barnet and District AC In early 2017 the club magazine Editor wrote to me, saying: “I'd like there to be some things in the next issue relating to the club's 50 anniversary/history etc. Would you be able/willing to contribute something?” Without hesitation I said yes, and here it is. I have chosen to write three parallel intertwined stories. They are the main points in the development of the club in the early years, illustrated with some results and reports from those days from the relevant club magazines, and interspersed with some observations on my own short running career once I arrived on the scene (thankfully for you that was not until 1982!). There are thousands of results and reports, and I have tried to select items of interest and/or relevance. I have tried to not dwell on, or comment too often on, the ‘but things were different/better in them days’ aspect of athletics. I leave you to interpret the content as you wish. Considerable license has been taken in editing down mag reports to their core detail. STEVE CHILTON (with thanks to Brian Fowler and all the club magazine editors) 1 Early days Barnet and District AC was formed in 1967, after a merger of Hampstead Harriers with Barnet AC. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find copies of the club mags from the years before 1974, so the first 6 years are something of a mystery (I copied all Brian Strong’s club mags from 1973 onwards a while ago, at the time I was editor, as he was editor for many of the early years).

    Annual Report and Accounts for Y/E 2018

    ANNUAL REPORT AND ACCOUNTS FOR YEAR ENDING 31st OCTOBER 2018 ANNUAL REPORT 2018 Summer of 2018! What fantastic weather for the families we arranged holidays for, here are a few comments from some of the families we helped last year….. “You are precious memory makers.” “Without you we would not have been able to go on a wonderful holiday.” “This is the first holiday we have EVER had as a family.” These are the type of comments we receive from families all the time. This is what helps make each year so special for us at CF Dream Holidays. 2018 2018 was another great year for Dream Holidays. Our income, although not quite as much as in 2017, was over our budget level and with our hard work and the good discounts we receive from many of the holiday companies such as Haven and Butlins, we were able to help 223 CF children and their families with a much needed respite holiday. We were also very lucky once again to be given some free holidays in Duchally Country Estate in Scotland by the wonderful people at CLC World Resorts and Hotels. In addition to this we continue to use holiday accommodation on the Isle of Wight which is much loved by the families who are lucky enough to go there with us, that and the numerous free tickets to the many attractions on the Island make this a great choice for the families. We have received lots of lovely postcards and photos from families, many of which you will see throughout this report.
