Kingsway Police <strong>News</strong><br />
Kingsway Neighbourhood Co-ordination group have recently just closed their current priority<br />
on Anti Social Behaviour within the park area of Lyneham Drive. This was as a result of a<br />
dramatic decline in the reported incidents of ASB in the park and the opinion of local residents<br />
in the area was, that there had been a huge improvement in the behaviour of young people<br />
occupying the park in the hours of darkness and no alcohol had been seen to be consumed in the park area.<br />
An increase in patrols has allowed Police to establish the names and addresses of the young people using anti<br />
social behaviour in the park, the parents of those responsible have been informed and this has had a dramatic<br />
effect on their behaviour and consequently their behaviour has improved and reported incidents have reduced.<br />
Community Beat Officers Sam Jones and Emma MacDonald have launched a joint project with Kingsway<br />
Primary School called Police Pumas. Police Pumas is an initiative that has been supported by the local housing<br />
providers, the Army and Safer Gloucester Partnership. Police Pumas is for 9 to 11 year olds and is held on a<br />
weekly basis at Kingsway Primary School, the idea is to promote responsibility, good values and a sense of<br />
pride in their local community amongst the members. Pumas is very well attended and they have already taken<br />
part in a litter pick on the estate as well as operating speed cameras in a road safety workshop.<br />
We will be looking to carry out more community consultation and Police have recently set up a new PIP at<br />
Coco Coffee Lounge every Thursday from 10-12 and we would welcome anyone who has any concerns<br />
about the local community to come and see us.<br />
There has recently been a “Have Your Say Day” in the Kingsway area where a random number of streets<br />
were visited by Police to discuss any concerns of local residents. The results have been discussed with the<br />
Kingsway Neighbourhood Co-ordination Group and the new priorities for the area will be decided shortly.<br />
