COVID19 REMEMBER - STAY ALERT - CONTROL THE VIRUS - SAVE LIVES
SUMMER 2020 Hazel Grove Offerton Great Moor
Dear Readers The recent unprecedented events have affected everyone. No one could have missed the sad stories circulating on the news and social media; that said we can also be encouraged by the generosity and coming together within our Insp.Shaun communities. Your local Policing team has been busy helping the vulnerable Flavell & and dealing with breaches of COVID-19 regulations. This has been done in line Sgt Rick Lloyd with the traditions of British Policing seeking consent by engaging and encouraging people to do the right thing rather than solely looking to prosecute. Where necessary we have used our powers and worked with partners within the council services and registered housing providers We continue to prevent crime and seek to prosecute offenders including a recent arrest of an offender who had stolen a car in a burglary. Although recent events have caused a reduction in burglary across the whole of the borough of Stockport our team, alongside staff from across the area are already planning to protect victims and target offenders to try to prevent a J2J1 / J2J2 return to pre COVID-19 levels. You can do your bit by being aware of your Offerton own security including; ensure doors and windows are shut and locked; leave a light on at night if the house is unoccupied; check your locks meet current J2J3 security standards and are resistant to lock snapping, see the crime Stepping Hill prevention advise on the GMP website. Due to concerns raised about the increase in speeding cars due to the empty Davenport, roads Greater Manchester Police Traffic Network Section have been Woodsmoor conducting speed checks across this neighbourhood and we will help Stockport Council to identify what can be done to make this area safer for all. J2J4 Now summer is here we would like you all to have fun while staying safe and Hazel Grove following the government’s advice on COVID-19, see below for advice. All the emergency services get an increase in demand due to anti-social and inappropriate behaviour do not be one of the people who cause this and if you have children ensure you know where they are and what they are doing, we do not want to have to be the ones to tell you they have been injured. Look up safer4summer on line for advice and if you are aged 5 to 16 a chance to win an Ipad. SGT Lloyd.
