The Ravensbury team in partnership with Ward Panel members has agreed to the following Ward priorities:
Anti Social Behaviour in General
Anti Social Behaviour by Motorist
Truancy
School Patrol
Since the student’s return to school following the Easter Break the team have actively increasing their patrols around known localities where the truants congregate. Once the student has been identified details are taken and the students returned to school. All details are passed onto the Education Welfare Officer.
Morden Town Centre Dispersal Zone
The Dispersal Zone has had a marked improvement in Anti Social Behaviour within the specified areas. The Team are continuing to patrol the Dispersal Zone and enforce any anti social behaviour.
The dispersal zone will be in place from 1st April 2010 until 30th September 2010
Keep your bicycle safe
Follow our simple crime prevention tips and keep your bicycle safe from theft.
With increasing numbers of us owning bicycles, it's important to know how to keep them safe.
Help keep your bike secure by following some simple tips.
Protect your possessions
• take out insurance, either by extending your home contents insurance or through a separate policy; cycling organisations and bike shops may offer specialist cover
• record and register your bike free at www.immobilise.com
• security mark the frame
At home
More than half of all bicycle thefts take place from an owner’s property.
• keep your bike in a secure garage or shed and keep the door locked
• keep it out of public view
Out and about
• always lock your bicycle, even if you are just leaving it for a couple of minutes
• avoid isolated places; leave your bike where it can be seen.
• A steel D-shaped locks are recommended as the minimum lock standard; ask your local bike shop for advise
• lock your bike to an immovable object – a bike rack or ground anchors; thieves can remove drainpipes and lift bikes off signposts
• make the lock and bike hard to manoeuvre when parked - stop thieves smashing it open by keeping the lock away from the ground; keep the gap between bike and lock small
• secure removable parts; lock both wheels and the frame together
The next Drop-in surgery will be Saturday 29/05/2010 between 1300-1500 hrs at Morden Hall Park outside the café area.
