Arleston Neighbourhood Watch - 24th November 2020


BEWARE 

You maybe aware of a man who walks around the streets pushing a pushchair with no child in it. This man has been spotted on numerous occasions trespassing on residents properties. He has been seen to take items left in gardens. 

Can we please ask all residents to keep an eye out for this gentleman. He is quite distinctive. He is from Hungry and has been seen to walk with a limp. He is often seen pushing a pushchair. He is a resident on Watling Street. If you see this gentleman trespassing and taking other people's property, please call 101 and give them as much information as you can. 

We have contacted the council about this ongoing situation. Please see their response below:

Residents who feel effected by any current accumulation of waste at 117 Watling Street, Wellington to contact Public Protection directly on 01952 381818 or by emailing public.protection@telford.gov.uk

They will be required to provide further information to assist with any investigation into the complaint.

 Residents who witness fly tipping on council land can report such incidents, this can be done via an online portal found here: 

https://www.telford.gov.uk/info/20482/street_care_and_cleaning/212/fly-tipping_dumped_rubbish/2

Again, they may be required to provide further information to assist with any investigation into the complaint

We would advise residents to ensure that their properties are secure.  If you have any unwanted items, please take them to Telford Recycling Centre to prevent this man from entering your property. For more information about the recycling centre, please visit this link

There are concerns that this man and others who have been spotted around Telford, have been searching bins to take private and confidential information. Also please ensure that you do not dispose of any letters, bank statements etc in the bin. We would recommend that you purchase a shredder if you have not got one, to ensure that any confidential letters are destroyed appropriately. We wouldn't want anyone to become a victim of fraud. 


Zoom Session This Week

We have a zoom meeting scheduled with Cllr Angela McClements and an officer from the safer neighbourhood team this week.

If you have any questions, concerns or comments that you would like us to raise on your behalf, please let us know. 

You can send us a message via our FB page. Alternatively, please send us an email to arlestonneighbourhoodwatch@gmail.com 

Thank you


Residents of Bayley Road

We have been contacted by a concerned resident about activities that have taken place on Bayley Road. 

Can we please ask you to remain vigilant for any unusual cars that are not often seen to be parked on the road. Also if you do see anyone acting suspiciously or you have information that the police may be interested in about a resident(s) or visitors who are seen on the street or surrounding areas, please call 101. 

In the event of an emergency, please call 999. Please provide them with any vehicle details or descriptions of anyone acting suspiciously. 

Perhaps you are aware of a neighbour having visitors at all times of day and night? If you have any concerns, please contact the police. 

In the words of the resident who has already contacted the police with their concerns and also made contact with us "we just want our neighbourhood to be safe". This was one reason why this neighbourhood watch scheme was set up, to try to make our neighbourhood a safer place to live 

Thank you for your co-operation

We thought we would launch our very own competition to find Arleston's "Best Neighbour 2021" to coincide with "Neighbourhood Watch Week" We launched the competition via our social media channels and asked for residents to send in their nominations to us via our Facebook page. Entrants had to name who they wanted to nominate and why their neighbour should be named as "Best Neighbour". We received several nominations, which was fantastic!  We were pleasantly surprised by some of the reasons as to why nominee's had been nominated. It felt great to be launching such a lovely competition after such a difficult year that we have all been through. First nomination  Our first nomination was received by Claire Goonan who wanted to nominate Sarah Jayne Davies as "Best Neighbour". Claire's reasons for nominating Sarah were as follows: Hi I would like to nominate Sarah Davies for the best neighbour award. She is always happy to help out any one. ...

Hello Arleston Neighbourhood Scheme Members.   I thought I would introduce myself to you as the Borough Councillor for Arleston Ward.  I am proud of my Arleston roots and strongly believe in community pride and ensuring that the community work together on issues that are important to them.  Since being elected in 2007 I have worked hard across the ward, holding regular weekly surgeries at the Community Centre and have taken up hundreds of local issues right across Arleston.   I am delighted that a Neighbourhood Watch Group has been set up in Arleston recently and look forward to working alongside the Group and the local Arleston Police Team in tackling the issues that residents are concerned about.  I know that there are many residents who are concerned about anti-social behaviour and want to live in a strong, safe and friendly community.  That’s why a Neighbourhood Watch Group is important to reduce the fear of crime, improving home security an...
