Stolen BMW Cars

Recently there have been a number of BMW cars stolen or damaged as a result of attempted break ins in the Pocklington, Snaith, Howden and Goole areas. All the cars have been locked and either parked on driveways or outside the owner’s home and appear to have been stolen overnight. ( All the stolen cars were taken without keys)

There will now be additional Police patrols in the areas at the relevant times overnight.  Please remind everyone to be extra vigilant, ensuring that all car and house doors and windows are securely locked etc and to report any suspicious people or vehicles to the Police on the non emergency number 101 or 999 in an emergency, or if a crime is occurring

5. News and Appeals

General bicycle information

1. What can you do to protect your property?

 If you haven’t done so already register your bicycles frame number along with any pictures and other details you have on www.immobilise.com. (Registration on immobilise only takes a couple of minutes. All you need is your bike's make, model, identifying number code(s) and a few photographs).

 Invest in a quality “D” lock to help reduce the risk of your bike being stolen.

 Look at where you are storing your bike and make sure that your shed or garage is secured with a good quality lock. Many shed windows are never used, if this is the case – why not screw them shut. Fitting mesh or steel bars across the window from the inside allows light to enter but means the thief has to go to a lot of trouble to remove them. Replace broken glass with laminated glass.

 Consider buying a cycle anchor that can be bolted to the wall or floor of your shed which your cycle can then be fastened to or if you have several cycles lock them altogether.

 If you are having to leave your bike out on the street, where possible leave it in a well lit area and lock both the frame and wheels to the bike stand. If there is no stand, ensure that it’s locked to secure street furniture eg railings or a lamp post.

2. Are you visible?

 Make sure you wear light coloured clothing, preferably luminous with reflective stripes.

 Make sure whatever you wear, can’t become entangled in wheels or chains.

 Don’t carry heavy bags or rucksacks, which may make you unstable.

 Always wear a helmet, as it may help to prevent serious head injuries, make sure it fits you and conforms to current British Standards.

3. Accessories

 Fit a bell to warn other road users of your presence.


 If you cycle in poor visibility or at night you must fit:

- White front light - Rear red light

- Red rear reflector

- Amber pedal reflectors front and rear.

 Any distraction can cause an accident.

 Always show drivers what you intend to do and try to anticipate a driver’s actions.

 Ride positively without making any erratic changes in direction or speed.

 Look and signal before you start, stop or turn, ride well clear of the kerb and parked cars and always obey the rules of the road especially stop, one way and no entry signs.

6. ERYC Proposal for Public Spaces Protection Orders in Bielby.

Paul informed the meeting that the purpose of the order for Bielby concerns Dog Fouling. The proposal document was posted on the blog [on 10/4/16]. There was a brief discussion about how to make people aware of the Order and how the village would be notified. Paul agreed to make further enquires.

7. Queen’s 90th Birthday Celebrations: Commemorative Medal, Commemorative Keepsakes.

We had been contacted by two organisations who are selling commemorative items to celebrate Queen Elizabeth’s 90th birthday. Tower Mint are producing a medal (a sample coin was passed around the meeting) and Insignia Ltd have mugs, bookmarks and coins. Minimum order quantity limits were imposed by both organisations. The meeting declined to place orders for these items.

8. Bus Shelter Rota.

The new rota for 2016-2017 is attached. Most of those on last year’s list were at the meeting and were happy to continue. Gabrielle agreed to contact the people who weren’t at the meeting to see if they are happy to continue.

9. Defibrillator.

The village has received the defibrillator. Unfortunately, it is not possible to install it in the planned location in the porch at Stoneleigh. The large cabinet that the defibrillator has to be stored in would cause access problems for the care home. It is not possible to attach it to any part of the church.

The meeting discussed various other sites such as the BT phone box, the bus shelter and using special brackets for a lamp post. Installing the equipment in the village is problematic as a dedicated and permanent electricity supply is required.
Dale is willing to install it on an outside wall at the care home however it won’t necessarily be immediately visible. It was noted that Everingham Village Hall has placed signs to indicate the location of their defibrillator.
Neil Readman proposed and Val Nolton seconded, and the meeting agreed, that the care home is the best location. Paul will speak to Dale Greenaway.

10. Beck update.

The adverse weather this winter has put the beck under pressure but the works carried out last year have ensured that the beck has flowed and coped well with the amount of rainfall so far. Paul thanked Neil Readman for his work this year.

11. Rural health checks update.

The Health van was due to come to the village in April. Paul said he would chase this up.

12. Village Blog.

Sara Ridsdale was thanked for her time and work in keeping us all informed about the village and local events via the Village Blog. The meeting agreed to pay Sara £60.

13. Fracking.

Paul Ward began by summarizing the stages that the drilling companies go through before planning permission is applied for and read out a reply he had received from our M.P. Greg Knight. [N.B.Both previously posted on the Blog on 2/3/16 and 31/3/16].

Suzanne Rushton provided the meeting with information and feedback from meetings and research undertaken recently. As a Health Educator, Suzanne has a particular concern regarding the impact of fracking on the health of people close to drilling sites. Her research into this has included attending public meetings and meeting with residents who live close to and have been affected by the Rathlin fracking site at West Newton, East Yorkshire. She has been told about numerous health problems and Public Health England have admitted that there is no strategy to monitor the health effects of fracking. Other concerns raised include damage to land and property resulting from seismic testing prior to drilling. [N.B. – the above is only a brief outline as Suzanne has agreed to write up her notes which will be uploaded onto the Blog].

Ian Ross spoke about how safe the drilling industry was due to the regulations imposed.

There was further discussion and Ian suggested that another meeting should be arranged dedicated to this subject.

14. Any other business.

Neil Readman raised a concern with regard to the possibility of Bielby flooding again as a result of further development in Pocklington. He handed out copies of a document requesting support with a Flood Alleviation Scheme in Pocklington. Neil asked for completed forms to be returned to him at Ambleside by 6th May. [N.B. The document was posted on the Blog on 28/4/16].

Ian Ross raised the issue of policing and crime and the information given to the public in the form of Police Updates. He said that the Wolds Weighton Police Update was needed as well as the Pocklington Provincial Police Update. Gabrielle said she would forward these for uploading to the Blog.

Ian expressed his concern over recent policing results given in the Updates. The lack of prosecutions for a spate of burglaries in nearby villages was disappointing. He asked what efforts were being made to resolve the crimes. Paul Ward commented that his father had been in the police and that they rely on help and information from the public. Paul attends regular meetings with the Crime Prevention Panel and agreed to raise this at the next meeting.

There was no further business and the meeting closed at 9.15pm
