Policing Priorities Poll Results

The top 3 priorities from the June poll which will now be given extra policing resources were for The Graftons (32 votes), Great Alne (28 votes), Alcester Conway Estate (25 votes). The priority to deter vehicle crime and burglaries in Welford received 11 votes so did not make the cut. Perhaps we can muster more votes if this is an option in the next local policing priorities poll.

Full results of the poll can be seen at the end of the local policing update for 8th July at https://www.welfordonavon.com/information/safer-neighbourhood-team/.

Missing Table & Chairs from Memorial Hall

It is disappointing to have to advise that in the period from the Street Fair until last week, some one has “borrowed” one of the heavy folding tables and circa 6 chairs from the Hall and failed obtain permission or return them.
To replace these will cost in excess of £400.
If anyone knows the whereabouts of these, please email welfordmemorialhall@gmail.com or give me a call on 751400.
Kind regards

Hall Committee
