Ongoing problem at Western Approach Avonmouth.  Multiple cars meet at the location often travelling at speed and causing issues at the roundabouts.  This is a difficult situation to police,  due to the large volumes of vehicles that turn up.  Police are encouraging members of the public to report the situation at the time to enable traffic officers or the local neighbourhood policing team to turn up and show a presence.

There has been an increase in Rural Crime activities in Alveston, Oldbury and Littleton-upon-Severn.  The local beat team are working closely with the Rural Crime team.  We are gathering intel regarding these issues and encourage the public to call at the time.

Rural crime is an issue for large areas of the country but it tends to go unreported. It can impact on insurance premiums, food prices and damage local communities.

Police have received an increase in the number of calls regarding youths causing anti social behaviour in and around Pilning Village hall.  Police take seriously all reports of this nature and will deal robustly with anyone engaging in this type of activity.

If you see or hear any type of ASB in this or any other area please call 101 or 999.

Community Engagement Forums (CEF), previously known as Safer and Stronger Community Groups, in South Gloucestershire, are about listening and responding to local people’s real issues. People in their communities know best what works for them and what their real needs are.

The aims are:

• to promote pride in the local area as a safe, thriving and pleasant place to live, work and play
• to reduce crime, disorder and drug and alcohol misuse in the area
• to empower local people to have a greater voice and influence over local decision making and service delivery by increasing the strength, capacity and engagement of the local community
• to improve the quality of life of people in the local area by identifying community aspirations, needs and local priorities.
