Arleston Neighbourhood Watch - W/C 23rd November 2020


As we head in to a new week, we thought we would provide you with an update.

COMMUNITY SPEED MONITORING TEAM 


Due to the concerns from residents about speeding vehicles that travel through Arleston, we are looking to set up a community speed monitoring team. 

We have had several enquiries from residents who were interested in joining the team. So far, we have only received one completed application. For a scheme to be considered by West Mercia Police for our area, we need at least 6 applications from residents who would like to join our team. 

If you have concerns about speeding vehicles in the area and you would like to become a member of the monitoring team, please send us a message via our FB page or via email. Our email address is arlestonneighbourhoodwatch@gmail.com 

We look forward to hearing from you

FLYTIPPING & ABANDONED VEHICLE 


We are continuing to report items that have been dumped within the area. If you happen to come across any items that have been dumped, please report to Telford & Wrekin Council. This can be done via their website or via the "Everyday Telford App"

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 will be speaking to a local officer this week & will make him aware of the feedback that we have received so far about this gentleman.

We would like to thank those who have joined our official scheme so far.

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. ...
