Dear All,

Please see below the lastest update from our DWO PCSO Adam Charles. Thank you Adam.

I'm know that many of you have seen our DWO's patrolling around the area. Not only has their presence

been very welcome but it has allowed them to be successful in stopping at least one unlicensed cold caller, and initiated further enquiries

on the latest dreadful moped robbery. Apparently the Police were patrolling and speaking to a local resident nearby to the incident

and the moped drove past them at a great speed! With the registration number taken it was later established that the moped

was stolen earlier that day in Lambeth!! A silver 125CC Honda. Should anyone spot it somewhere please call 101 immediately

or let our DWO Team know. Let's hope that the Police presence on our streets has also warned off such criminals.

Please note that our next Safer Neighbourhood Public meeting is on 7th December at 8pm in the Friends Room at St Marys Church. There will be a talk

by Sgt Miles Fuller of the Bromley Burglary Squad. The Agenda is attached. Refreshments following.

Don't forget the Bromley Burglary Squad Crime prevention Event on Sunday 26th November between 9am and 1pm at

the Bromley Tennis Centre, Newstead Wood Road, BR6 9SA.

The next public Bromley Safer Neighbourhood Board is at Beckenham Methodist Church, Clock House Road, BR3 4JP. 6.30pm for 7pm.

Kind regards,

Graham.

From our DWO PCSO Adam Charles
