Nottingham Knockers - Alert -We received this last week from Trading Standards;

Dear Town and Parish Councils

East Riding of Yorkshire Council, Trading Standards Services as received reports of Nottingham Knockers cold calling in East Riding villages.

You may know this group as ‘duster sellers’. They are normally young males carrying large bags full of cleaning products which they offer for sale door-to-door.  This approach is believed to have started in the Nottingham area,  hence the term ‘Nottingham Knockers’. Unfortunately, as well as selling everyday items at inflated prices, they may also be looking for suitable targets with a view to either obtaining personal details to sell on, or committing crime.

These callers typically claim to be ex-offenders trying to make a new start in life by working on a probation or rehabilitation scheme, and may show a false ID card, or a false Pedlar's Certificate (genuine certificates are issued by the Police).  Government rehabilitation schemes do not involve door-to-door sales.

Local residents have reported that some of these callers have been abusive.  It is also believed that others may try to charm their way in, making repeat visits to the same household.  

The best course of action for local residents is:

• DON’T DEAL WITH COLD CALLERS 
• Do not make up-front payments to any cold callers.
• Do not deal with Nottingham Knockers.
  
• NEVER allow Nottingham Knockers into your home.
• If you are aware of Nottingham Knockers visiting your neighbourhood, please report any such activity to the Police immediately, using the non-emergency number, 101.  Give as much information as you can such as times dates, descriptions and vehicle registration numbers. By doing this you may help prevent crime.
• Report any suspicions about other types of door-to-door selling to Citizens Advice consumer helpline 0808 223 1133, giving as much information as you can, such as business names and addresses.

If you are able to help raise awareness of this issue, we would be grateful.  Thank you for your attention.

Yours faithfully

Trading Standards Service

Christmas Village Meal Deposit

Last reminder for deposit for Bielby Village Christmas meal on Sunday 11th December.

£10 deposit per person is due next week on Saturday 24th September to Ian and Judith Simpson. 

Roadworks Reminder and request re parking

 

1 / 1

Just a reminder that road works will commence in the village starting next Monday 12th through to Friday 16th September.  These repairs are subject to suitable weather conditions.  

The council contractors have asked that vehicles are not parked anywhere on the main road, especially on, opposite or near where the road has been marked in yellow.  

Also, I can confirm that a request has been put through to have the roadside drains ‘jetted’ through ASAP.  It was noted that with this week’s heavy rain the village roadways were flooded in several places due to drains being unable to handle the quantity of rain.

We will advise residents when this further work is scheduled.

At 11.00 am and 3.00 pm there will be a short guided tour (c.15 mins.) to explain a few things:

- why is the church where it is?

- why is it a special spot?

- how old is the church?

- how much bigger did it use to be?

- what has changed and why?

- according to folklore, which door was the devil's?

- which bell is one of the oldest in Yorkshire (from c.1300)?

- where is the priest's medieval sundial?

- which war memorials are a century old this year?

- and more besides e.g. on show will be the photos and children's craftwork displayed at the Jubilee celebrations.

Feel free to come for a tour or your own quiet visit.
