#YouSaidWeDid

Dear resident,

Thank you for completing our recent survey about priorities for policing in your local area. We had an excellent response. Your feedback has helped us identify particular areas of focus on this beat. They are:

• You said - Anti-social behaviour (ASB).
We did – Local police continue to conduct proactive patrols of the ASB hotspots as part of their daily activity. This has continued throughout December and we are pleased to report no significant issues at this time.

• You said - Road safety.
We did – Local officers have completed a speeding operation on the 25th November 2020 which focussed on the following locations; Winchester Road, Blaby, Little Glen Road, Glen Parva and Cambridge Road, Whetstone/ Cosby. During the operation, seven vehicles were stopped for excessive speed and dealt with via the relevant sanctions.
Further speed reduction events at various locations are planned for January, utilising our police volunteers and special constables.
Local police will also be present at schools during key times throughout the school day to ensure individuals are both driving and parking appropriately and responsibly.

• You said - Vehicle crime.
We did – Vehicle crime, namely theft from motor vehicles, remains a concern for local residents. Local officers have been completing crime pattern reviews to ensure patrols are completed at the right locations during key times.
The month of December saw a continuation of the ‘darker nights’ campaign which involves local officers completing proactive patrols in the areas you live and targeting those who cause the community most harm. This will continue to the end of the year and beyond.
Recent weeks has seen a significant drop in vehicle crime in your area but we ask you to remain vigilant. Please ensure your vehicles are locked and secured at all times and no belongings are left in your vehicle, on display or otherwise.

• You said - Nuisance motorbikes.
We did - This priority is often linked to general ASB and local officers are aware of this ongoing issue. In attempt to both identify and take positive action against those who cause a nuisance, patrols have been completed throughout the month at the park locations. S59 warning signs are in place at key hotspot locations, allowing police to seize bikes immediately from anyone involved in this unwanted behaviour. Patrols throughout December have been positive with no issues to report.

What you have told us has helped shape our priorities for this beat. My colleagues and I will continue to keep you up to date on our progress. You can also follow what we are doing at Blaby Police on Facebook and Twitter.

If you have any further feedback, questions or concerns then please do not hesitate to get in contact or say hello when you see us on the street.
Of course, please remember you can report crime online at www.leics.police.uk or call 101. Please dial 999 in an emergency.
All that’s left now is to wish you all a safe and happy Christmas and New Year.

Thank you again for your support.

Your beat officers,

PS Goldsmith, PC Uppal, PCSO Malik and PCSO Stevenson.
