As a small Council – Whittlesey Town Council try and make our lives and leisure as safe and pleasant for all – why is it that a small number have to spoil things for the rest of the community.
I am talking about the recent vandalism at the Manor Field.
Our Town Council installed several ‘Picnic Benches’ at various locations around the field, these are very well used in good weather (some drop their rubbish on the ground – but thats another issue).
Recently several benches were seriously vandalised – there are costs involved as these damaged benches have to be made safe, will probably have to be taken out and removed at Whittlesey rate-payers expense.
I/we as a Council do not give in easily and will look at replacing the benches maybe next year – I/we will look at how to fund this with as least cost to the rate-payer.
If you witness any anti-social behaviour I would encourage you to report it to the Police on 101 or on the cambs police website… https://www.cambs.police.uk/report/Report
