Chris Pearson....<br />
It’s been a busy few weeks and<br />
as ever I’ve got a few updates to<br />
pass on.<br />
First up, I’m pleased to report that<br />
PC 2358 Mark Szeremeta has<br />
joined the Gedling Neighbourhood<br />
team as an additional officer. Mark<br />
will be based at Carlton and is a<br />
welcome addition to the team.<br />
Last month the force supported the<br />
national knife crime week of action<br />
known as ‘Operation Sceptre’.<br />
The Gedling neighbourhood team<br />
and colleagues from across the<br />
force were involved in a number<br />
of proactive activities to try and<br />
prevent knife crime. A full update<br />
on the search can be found here:<br />
https://www.nottinghamshire.<br />
police.uk/news-article/police-andcouncil-officers-carry-out-weaponssweep-carlton<br />
We also visited a number of<br />
schools across Gedling Borough<br />
to provide an educational input<br />
around knife crime which was well<br />
received by our local schools. The<br />
force also carried out another<br />
knife amnesty with the support<br />
of Gedling Borough Council.<br />
A number of unwanted knives<br />
were handed in and will now be<br />
destroyed.<br />
September saw a slight decrease<br />
in overall reported burglary<br />
compared to August this year with<br />
5 less offences. However, year<br />
to date burglary continues to be<br />
an issue. Offenders have mostly<br />
gained entry by damaging windows<br />
or doors and have targeted<br />
properties whilst the occupants<br />
have been away on holiday. I<br />
would continue to ask that any<br />
suspicious incidents are reported<br />
to us as this may prevent further<br />
offences from taking place. If you<br />
are planning on leaving your home<br />
unoccupied and need advice on<br />
security then please contact us.<br />
Information can also be found on<br />
our website.<br />
In the last month I have attended<br />
three community meetings with a<br />
partnership meeting in Netherfield,<br />
a Neighbourhood Watch meeting in<br />
Daybrook and a visit to Calverton<br />
Parish Council. I gave some<br />
updates around our policing<br />
activity across the area and the<br />
work we are doing to reduce some<br />
of the communities concerns.<br />
Throughout the last few months<br />
PCSO Trev Parkinson, based at<br />
Carlton, has been working to<br />
improve our ‘Community Road<br />
Safety’ scheme. Trev has worked<br />
to identify, recruit and train new<br />
volunteers. We are aiming to<br />
expand this work across Gedling<br />
and recruit more volunteers. My<br />
thanks to the individuals who have<br />
given up their personal time to<br />
support this initiative.
