Autumn’s Here and We’re Out & About

Autumn’s Here and We’re Out & About

Busy week back from annual leave, I hope I haven’t missed too much…

I have come back and working with some homeless in our area. Trying to support them into housing and with other needs. Most aren’t causing issue but I am also aware of concerns some people have.

I have also been made aware or issues in Brintons park so if you know anything please let me know. It appears people are causing damage and messing around. Further to the messing around I am aware of concerning behaviour with a vehicle being used in the park. If you have any information around the vehicle that was driven in the park and then burnt please let us know. 

So this week I have supported Stourport in an arrest around threats to cause Criminal damage and Criminal damage. In total, including mine, 3 arrests were made over a few days at the start of the week.

A stolen van has been found and been seized for forensics. We will be looking to identify and find these offenders. Hopefully once all evidence has been gained this can be returned to the rightful owners.

Wow this week has rolled us into October! I'm not sure where this year has gone. But on 01/10 I was part of a large CID operation on the boarder of our SNT patch. During this, three arrests have been made and multiple seizures of items including a vehicle.

I have been out and about on my bicycle on Thursday. This is always nice as I can engage with all of you, but still get around. I have made lots of engagement with scooter and bike riders, most  on private property but hopefully made some think twice about riding in the street. I tried to catch some in the street, but my legs just didn’t quite go fast enough that day… maybe next time.  

I had some lovely chats with people so I will be looking to get out and about again while the weather is ok.

I hope this week has treated you well and wish you all a lovely weekend. I will see you all again on Tuesday 6th October 2026.

Some interesting facts for the day:

Today is national Smile day! So I hope you feel you can smile today. Consider doing something to make someone else smile. It may just be making them a hot drink or a complement.

October is ADHD awareness month as well as Dyslexia and Dyspraxia awareness weeks - many neurodivergent conditions share strengths and challenges both in the work place and home life.
