  • FEBRUARY 2020 As You Are All Aware, Ashford Has Recently Seen Very Unsettled Weather As Storm Dennis, Storm Ciara and Storm Jorge Battered the Country
    GREAT CHART WITH SINGLETON – FEBRUARY 2020 As you are all aware, Ashford has recently seen very unsettled weather as Storm Dennis, Storm Ciara and Storm Jorge battered the country. Strong winds and torrential downpours caused many roads in the area to be blocked by falling trees. On Sunday, 16th February, my colleague and I were deployed to a tree that had fallen onto a vehicle along the A252 that runs from Molash to Chilham. Remarkably, the driver of the vehicle walked away uninjured. We were then there for 4 hours waiting for Kent Highways’ tree surgeons to remove the tree that had blocked the road. Over the last few weeks, Ashford PCSOs have attended many fallen trees in order to help keep the public safe and traffic moving. During the February school holiday, Police Community Support Officers have, once again, been involved in an operation with regards to nuisance youths and antisocial behaviour. Traditionally the school holidays have been a busy period for Kent Police when it comes to a minority of youths causing problems. The aim of this operation is to conduct pro-active patrolling and deal with youths as soon as possible when issues are reported to us. In February, Police Community Support Officers were also involved with a different operation which was organised by the Kent Police Community Safety Unit. This was to raise the awareness of knife crime and to talk to the 8000 children in our local secondary schools about it. Test purchasing of knives was also carried out by non-uniformed police cadets who were underage.
