Actions taken on your neighbourhood priorities and general updates
Update: 06/07/2010 21:20:50
You said... We Did
You told us... that anti-social behaviour occurs around Rubus Close in West End.
We responded... by concentrating our patrols in the area. We are also extending Neighbourhood Watch coverage in and around Rubus Close and have requested residents to keep a diary logging any anti-social behaviour incidents. A local male has been given a Section 59 warning in relation to anti-social driving.
West End
Following a theft from the BP garage in Guildford Road, West End, a male offender was identified, charged and found guilty at court. He subsequently received 12 weeks imprisonment for his crime. Two further suspects for a theft at the same location were identified and are due to be arrested. The garage is well covered by CCTV and the Safer Neighbourhood Team will work with the staff to identify any future culprits.
There have been a couple of reported thefts from vehicles in West End and I understand there may be others. I have also received similar reports in Lightwater where drivers have had items stolen from vehicles, even though there is no obvious sign of entry. I urge anyone who has been a victim of such a theft to report it to us so we can build up a full picture of where and when these offences occur.
Lightwater
We are pleased to say there are no current priority issues in Lightwater. However, we have been concentrating evening patrols on the Square where there are concerns about littering and minor damage. We have been speaking to local youths who, while not necessarily to blame for this, have been educated about the law. It should be pointed out that the majority of the area around Budgens is private property. Therefore if you have no reason to be there you are trespassing and may be asked to leave by shop staff.
Once again, for those enquiring about parking in the village - Surrey Borough Council recently conducted a parking review here. In short, the feedback received says there are no major issues and as such there will be no immediate changes or expenditure in the village concerning this. Anyone wishing to enquire about the double yellow lines, should contact Surrey Heath Borough Council's enforcement officers.
Arrests made in Surrey Heath drugs raids
On 24-25 June the Lightwater Safer Neighbourhood Team assisted in Operation Kingsville which saw 16 addresses raided in an attempt to disrupt the supply of Class A drugs in Surrey Heath. Eighteen people were arrested during the raids, the culmination of a 16 week intelligence-led operation involving more than 90 police officers and staff working alongside partner agencies such as the Surrey Drug and Alcohol Team and Surrey Heath Borough Council. The operation was a great success and demonstrates the determination of Surrey Police to eradicate the unlawful supply of such commodities.
Intelligence from the community is key to the success of such operations. Anyone with information concerning drugs should contact Surrey Police on 0845 125 2222. Or you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Profile: I have been a Police Officer with Surrey Police for twelve years. I currently work alongside Police Community Support Officer Mike Mann. Much of my policing background has been in the field of investigation, however upon returning to work three years ago following the arrival of my first son, I decided to join the Surrey Heath Neighbourhood Team. I now work with colleagues based at the Lightwater Police Office; working as a team we work closely with the community to tackle crime issues important to local people. It is my aim to create a safe environment for us all to live and work. Please contact us, stop us in the street or call if you have anything you would like to discuss. I believe in information sharing, we value what you have to tell us and will aim to answer any questions that you have about our work and how we can assist you.
