12 members of Whittlesey NHW attended the meeting last night, we welcomed new member Kim K to the group and we have signed 2 further members this month.
Neighbourhood Sgt Richard Lugg along with our (2) PCSO’s were in attendance.
We covered a vast array of local subjects concerning our community, crime statistics being fairly level and NOT what peoples perception think crime levels are – I am talking of ‘reported’ crime – NOT all is reported and therefor is NOT recorded.
The group is very mindful of supporting vulnerable, elderly and lonely people within our area – we hope to be expanding in these area’s in the near future.
Secretary Robin Sutton is today having a meet up with PCC Jason Ablewhite and this will be one of the subjects to be discussed, another issue being the 101 None Emergency Call Centre.
Another major concern, which has been reported to both our local police and at HQ in Hinchingbrooke is that of Social Media – ‘Hate or Racism’ posts, the police are very aware of incidents and are looking into it – there is a very fine line between someone’s personal views and those that encourage/promote or entice hatred or racism….. just be careful is the advice.
Sgt Lugg also gave an update on other investigations currently going on and his team is producing some good results – they can’t be everywhere at once, but he has been given more resources.
