Issue: - Youths Causing Annoyance High Street, Market Weighton (Evenings):

The High Street and immediate town centre area of Market Weighton, including the Memorial Playing Fields, Scotts Croft and Londesborough Road, will continue to be targeted by patrols on an evening throughout June with a view to ensuring the reduction of the potential for problems.  Consideration will continue to be given to use of £90 fixed penalty notices for disorder, alcohol seizure and joint work with our partners at East Riding of Yorkshire Council to secure Acceptable Behaviour Contracts where appropriate.

4. News and Appeals

“CLICK BEFORE YOU CALL”

At Humberside Police more than one in four calls received on the 999 system are inappropriate, either because they simply are not emergencies requiring immediate police assistance or they are not police matters at all. 

People opt for 999 because they have no credit left on their phones or because they wrongly assume they will get dealt with more speedily if they ring 999 rather than 101.

Now, call takers are taking a stand and rather than simply sending a police officer to every incident, they will re-direct people to the most appropriate route.

And the public are being urged to “click before you call” and instead of ringing the police, unless it’s a real emergency, visit the website. Over the coming weeks a number of messages will be sent via our force Twitter (@Humberbeat) and Facebook Page using the #tag:  #ClickB4Ucall to highlight the different areas of information which are available on the website.

The recently launched new force website www.humberside.police.uk offers a wealth of information and is available to the public at the click of a button with details about everything from neighbourhood teams, police meetings and crime prevention advice through to the ability to report a minor crime online, complain or simply say thank you.

People who are not in urgent need of the police are being encouraged to first visit the website and see whether the answer they are looking for is there.

Cleaner & Gardener Wanted

I am looking for cleaner to work 3-5 hours per week (preferably on Tuesday mornings). £8/ hour. I live at Blackburn House. My sister (who lives just outside Melbourne) is also looking for someone for a couple of hours (same rate). So, potentially there is a day's work or it could be split. Please contact Nam Prakash on 07966673037.
I am also needing a gardener over the growing season to keep things tidy - negotiable hours but possibly, again 3-5 hours/ week. Contact, as above.

June 2015 Pocklington Town Bulletin

Pocklington Provincial Update for June 2015.

1.    Priority

Issue: Pocklington Town Centre area (Evenings):

Throughout June, we are to continue our High Visibility patrols of the Pocklington Town Centre area to deter potential anti-social behaviour. These patrols include regular checks on peripheral areas at Pocklington Infants’ School, Maxwell Road (periodic reports of criminal damage and youths causing annoyance), Broadmanor Play Park (periodic reports of anti-social behaviour on an evening), Waterloo Lane (reports of low level anti-social behaviour and criminal damage), All Saints Church yard (reports of periodic anti-social behaviour), and Union Street (reports of criminal damage).

 In addition, recent complaints of youths causing annoyance with vehicles on the Station Road car park will result in this location being targeted and consideration made of offences under Section 59 of the Police Act, which can result in vehicles being used to cause harassment, alarm or distress being seized. 

Criminal offenders will be challenged robustly, arrested or reported for summons. Penalty Notices for Disorder or warning letters may be used in appropriate cases however, those who offend should expect to be arrested and dealt with if their anti social behaviour amounts to criminal offending.  The exercise of discretion should not be expected.

2    Priority

Issue: Youths causing damage / annoyance with Vehicles, Stamford Bridge (Evenings):

Following reports of anti-social behaviour by groups of youths congregating with vehicles in the vicinity of the Viking Road car park on an evening, Patrols will be regularly checking this location during June.  Consideration will be given to the issue of £90 Penalty Notices for Disorder and arrest where appropriate, in addition to lower level offenders being dealt with under the FAIRWAY process jointly with East Riding of Yorkshire Council. It is unlikely that any discretion will be shown.  Drivers using their cars to cause alarm or distress will be considered for warnings and possible seizure of their vehicles under Section 59 of the Police Reform Act.  

3.    Priority

Issue: Youths Causing Annoyance, area of Sherbuttgate, Pocklington (Evenings):

Crime Prevention Meeting

Paul has let me know that there is a Crime Prevention Meeting to be held on Tuesday 28th July 2015 - Council Offices, George St, Pocklington - 7.30pm

If there is anything you would like them to discuss, can you let me know via the contact form, thanks.

Village Cricket Report

Sadly our first game against Barmby Moor turned into a total mismatch against a much bigger village full of cricketers.

Bielby 46 for 9, Neil Readman 15 not out. Good solid effort from debutant Rob Childs. Barmby Moor 47 for 1. Excellent catch by Edward Simpson.

As a result we have resigned from this year's competition and hope that the organising committee will come up with a change in the current ruling and allow the smaller villages to combine with a neighbouring parish to help them to enter a team in the future.
