NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCHTop Secret Cyberhood Watch Campaign To Launch 5th November 2019We are excited to announce the launch of Cyberhood Watch, the official partnership between Neighbourhood Watch and Avast, is launching tomorrow, Tuesday 5th November. Avast, a leading cyber security company, have come onboard as a new key sponsor for Neighbourhood Watch for the next 12 months. We know from our members how pressing the subject of cybersecurity and online fraud is today and it’s only increasing as a key crime issue, so we are pleased to be working with prevention experts in this field. The Cyberhood Watch initiative aims to better equip our members with tools, resources and information needed to stay safe online. Many of our members will already be aware of Cyberhood Watch, particularly the 14,000 of you who responded to our survey exploring attitudes and concerns around cybersecurity. The results of the survey form a key part of the press release launching the partnership, and will be referred to at key points over the initiative. We did a shout out for members who were interested or active in cybersecurity and online safety, and following discussions with those that came forward we have appointed our first round of Cyberhood Watch Ambassadors. The campaign will officially launch on Tuesday 5th November, meaning you may read about it in your local or national newspaper, hear about it on the radio, or even see representatives from Neighbourhood Watch and Avast talking about it on TV. If you receive this message prior to Tuesday 5th November please do not share or discuss it until the day. Following the launch there will be a range of useful resources that we will add to throughout the partnership, such as blog posts, bespoke toolkits, Cyberhood Watch stickers, etc., as well as an online training course about cybersecurity, available to all members via the new Avast Cyberhood Watch webpage and the Neighbourhood Watch website. Visit either site from tomorrow to find the links. Over the next 12 months, Avast will be working with Neighbourhood Watch to support the Ambassadors, host events, provide resources for events you may be running, develop useful guides and toolkits, and share Cyberhood Watch stickers and other merchandise to help drive awareness of the initiative across all regions. This initiative is about communities supporting communities when it comes to cybersecurity. If you have any questions about Cyberhood Watch or Neighbourhood Watch’s partnership with Avast, please contact enquiries@ourwatch.org.uk. We thank you for your continued support.

THE PRIDE OF NETHER ALDERLEYOn Saturday 5th October a group of seven volunteers undertook a litter pick along the roads and lanes of Nether Alderley. In all 13 large bags of rubbish were collected. Fortunately it was a lovely morning to be out and about and we had a very sociable lunch at the Wizard afterwards. We continue to be saddened at the amount of unnecessary rubbish that is strewn around our beautiful village and shocked to think of the damage that plastics, polystyrene and broken glass can inflict on our countryside and animals. Our next litter pick will be on November 30th. If you would like to join us please let Anne know on 01625 582514 so we can confirm the time and place to meet as well as ensure we have enough equipment. 24.

MANCHESTER AIRPORT FUTURE AIRSPACEIn 2017 the Government published a policy on the future of UK airspace. This made it clear that modernisation is essential and also led to the industry’s regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), developing the Airspace Modernisation Strategy (CAP1711). The strategy reflects the fact UK airspace is among the busiest in the world, having been designed for a different era. One of the foundations of this strategy is the need to respond to changes in technology and the improved navigational capabilities of current aircraft. As part of this, the Government requires Manchester Airport to lead a process of changing the airspace around the airport, which relates to flight paths used by aircraft arriving at or departing from Manchester Airport and flying at heights of up to 7,000ft. The UK en-route air traffic control provider (NATS) is responsible for reviewing flight paths above 7,000ft. There is a clear process for the airport, as change sponsors, to follow, which is set out by the CAA called CAP1616, and this will take more than two years. I am writing to you today as Manchester Airport embarks on the first phase of this process. The first phase within CAP1616 (step 1B) is called “Define” and requires Manchester Airport to agree the broad principles to adopt when designing new flight paths. This is not a formal consultation, but a requirement to develop a good understanding of the “principles” that matter most to the people and organisations affected by the airport’s operations. Manchester Airport has a long history of talking to and working with the communities around the airport, and the approach to this project will be no different. During step 1B, Manchester Airport will be holding a series of focus groups, organised by independent research organisation YouGov. They will involve a wide range of stakeholders from surrounding communities to ensure that there is a representative view on what matters to people ahead of designing the options for future flight paths. Focus group attendees will be asked a series of questions to help gather their views on the “principles” that should be considered. There are 11 questions looking at a range of topics, such as whether it’s better to concentrate flight paths over one area or spread them out more widely, and balancing noise and emissions. It is also important that anyone who is interested or has a view can join the conversation, and therefore there is a document outlining the approach and asking people questions about what should be considered at step 1B. This is on our dedicated website at www.manchesterairport.co.uk/futureairspace, which has a link to the online form where people can answer the questions (www.manchesterairport.co.uk/designquestions). The document also includes further background and a series of FAQs, which you may find useful if you have further questions, or if you are asked about the process. The questionnaire is open until 6th October 2019. It is important to note that at the moment there are no specific proposals for how airspace around Manchester could change. It is therefore imperative that those affected by the airport’s operations submit their views on the “principles” to consider when modernising the routes. This will result in a set of “Design Principles” that will be taken forward into developing a set of options during 2020 ahead of a full consultation. Yours sincerely, Andrew Cowan 12.

ACTION FRAUDFraudsters Targeting Social Media InfluencersBe Aware! The National Fraud Intelligence Bureau has received intelligence to suggest that fraudsters are contacting social media influencers, based in the UK and abroad, offering them the opportunity to market a bogus product, service or investment opportunity. Fraudsters will present professional and credible pitches to the social media influencers and try to convince them to feature the opportunity for a fee on their social media profiles in order to entice unsuspecting followers of the influencer to sign up or make a purchase. Additionally, fraudsters are using the names of well-known public figures, implying that their opportunity or product is endorsed by the figure when it is not. The public should be aware that any apparent endorsement by celebrities, influencers or personalities does not necessarily mean that an investment, product or service is genuine. The public is urged to exercise a cautious approach to any such offer of investment, product or service with the same caution they would at any other time. What You Need To Do Message Sent By 4.

ACTION FRAUDDrivers Targeted With Fake FinesWhat you need to know: Action Fraud have received an increase in reports and intelligence where elderly victims are being targeted by individuals purporting to be police officers or traffic wardens. The victims are being approached whilst parked in a car park and are told by the suspect that they have parked illegally or broken a speed limit and a photo has been taken of their car for ‘evidence’. Victims are advised that they will face a substantial penalty fine unless they pay a smaller upfront fee immediately. Victims, who opt for paying the smaller penalty, will be directed to a parking meter and asked to enter their card and PIN. These parking meters have been tampered with by the suspect in order to retain the card. Once the victim inserts their card and are asked for their PIN, the victims are shoulder surfed for their PIN by the suspect. Once victims input their PIN, the card is retained by the machine and victims are told by the suspect to seek help from the company who operates the parking meter or their bank. What you need to do: • If you are suspicious about the authenticity of the fine, do not pay it until you have verified it with your local council. Message Sent By: 2.

AFTERNOON TEAS THROUGHOUT JUNE!BIG THINGS IN STORE FOR OUR PARISH HALL – AND IT IS BRINGING THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER!Nether Alderley Parish Hall is an iconic building at the heart of our village and our community. It’s been here since the 17th century and has evolved from a school into the village centre that we now know and love. Over the years little has changed in this charming, historic building except for the odd modernisation to keep up with the times. Now though, it is in need of more than a little TLC. The good news is that long overdue work to the fabric of the building itself is now in motion and plans are soon to be submitted to Cheshire East Planning and Historic England. Nether Alderley Parish Council will also take this opportunity to upgrade most of the facilities to a modern standard, including heating, toilets and storage – so watch out for more news! What’s great about all of this activity is that it has renewed community interest and involvement. Recent months have seen a marked increase of events at the Parish Hall which have been a huge success. In May we set the ball rolling with a Table Top Sale, and building on the positive response and patronage, a series of “Golden Triangle” afternoon teas was launched throughout June. This triangle consists of our beautiful 14th Century St Mary’s Church, our Parish Hall and the National Trust’s fascinating Nether Alderley Mill. All of these are virtually adjacent to each other, which all adds up to a relaxed and fulfilling way to spend a Sunday afternoon which the many, many visitors tend to agree! More events are planned throughout the year. We intend to extend the scope for more parishioners to get directly involved in a wider variety of interesting and exciting initiatives that will help to bring our community closer together. Keep your eyes and ears open for further announcements!

ACTION FRAUDOnline Vehicle Sales Alert – The National Fraud Intelligence BureauWhat you need to know. Fraudsters have been advertising vehicles and machinery for sale on various online selling platforms, this includes vehicles and machinery used by the agricultural industry. The victims, after communicating via email with the fraudster, will receive a bogus email which appears to be sent by a trustworthy third party, often PayPal or Escrow. The emails are designed to persuade victims to pay upfront via bank transfer rather than through a protected payment method via the website. The victim pays the deposit before visiting the seller to collect the goods, believing there is a ‘cooling off’ period to reclaim the payment if they change their mind. This gives victims the false sense of security that their money is being looked after by this trustworthy third party, when in fact, it is not and the money has gone straight to the fraudster. It is vital that the public exercise caution when receiving emails or messages of this nature. What you need to do Message Sent By: 9. June, 2019Latest NewsComments Off on ACTION FRAUD |

CHESHIRE POLICE ALERTPolice Call For Vigilance Following A Series Of ScamsDetectives are urging Cheshire residents to be vigilant on the back of several fraud offences having been reported to police since the start of the Bank Holiday Weekend. Between Friday 28 May and yesterday, Tuesday May 28, Cheshire Constabulary was notified of scammers targeting people across the county. The fraudsters claimed to be representatives of a bank, a building society, HM Revenue and Customs, the police and a Facebook lottery and told victims a range of lies in a bid to convince them to part with cash. Detective Inspector Alastair Hinze, of Cheshire Constabulary’s Economic Crime Unit, said: “Three of the victims are from Warrington and there are others from Knutsford, Scholar Green and Stapeley. “Callers purporting to be from HMRC told victims in Warrington and Stapeley that they owed money in unpaid taxes and would be arrested if they did not pay up. “The other fraud offences in Warrington involved a caller pretending to be a detective, who asked a victim to move money from one bank account to another to assist with an investigation, and requests for money to enable a victim to receive a large amount of cash they had been told that they had won on a Facebook lottery. “A victim in Knutsford received a call from someone purporting to be from a bank’s fraud department telling them that they needed to move money from their ISA accounts to ‘safe accounts’ due to corrupt employees having access to them. “Unfortunately, some of the victims have lost large amounts of money as a result of these scams. “A victim in Scholar Green also had money taken after being called from someone purporting to be from a telecommunications company. They told the victim that they had detected hacking on their internet connection and needed to run software to thwart the hackers. “This paved the way for them to be able to steal money. “Sadly, scams like this are very common, with people throughout the county and the country being targeted every day. “Over-the-phone fraudsters can be very convincing and use a range of tactics to try to convince victims to part with their money. “For example, they may claim to be working for the police and ask you to call 101 or 999 to verify their identity. When you try to do so you will end up talking to an accomplice as they will not put the phone down when you do, ensuring that the line is kept open. “Scammers may also pretend to be calling you from your bank, building society, internet or phone provider or HMRC. “All these scams are orchestrated by serious organised crime groups. “I urge people living in Cheshire to be vigilant and to follow our advice on how to avoid falling victim to such scams.” Cheshire Constabulary’s scam prevention advice includes: Telephone scams HMRC and lottery scams DI Hinze added: “If you have elderly relatives, friends or neighbours please ensure that they are aware of such scams and that you do everything you can to safeguard them and their savings.” Anyone who believes that they have been a victim of a scam should contact Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040. Cheshire Constabulary can be contacted on 101. Message Sent By 5. June, 2019Latest NewsComments Off on CHESHIRE POLICE ALERT |

CHESHIRE POLICE ALERTSSheep WorryingSadly there has been a report of Sheep worrying in Woodhouse Lane, Gawsworth on the 14th April. The Sheep has later died. Chasing by dogs can do serious damage to sheep, even if the dog doesn’t catch them. The stress of worrying by dogs can cause sheep to die and pregnant ewes to miscarry their lambs. Sheep fleeing from dogs are often killed or seriously injured by their panicked attempts to escape, causing untold damage to fences and field boundaries in the process. It is an offence to allow a dog to worry sheep. It is vital that you keep your dog on the lead around livestock. If you have any information regarding the incident on Woodhouse lane then please call us on 101 Message Sent By 16. April, 2019Latest NewsComments Off on CHESHIRE POLICE ALERTS |

COMMEMORATIVE OAK TREE DEDICATED TO LOYAL PARISH GROUNDSMANWhen Nether Alderley was awarded a commemorative oak tree by Manchester Airport, as part of their 80th Birthday celebration, they decided to dedicate it to Norman Moore, who has served as a groundsman to St Mary’s Church and the Parish Hall for over 40 years. On Wednesday evening, March 27th, they held a planting ceremony in honour of Norman in the churchyard. It was attended by Norman’s friends and family, Parish Council members, children from Nether Alderley Primary School and their parents, and Manchester Airport Community Relations team. Alongside the tree there was also a time capsule, containing a whole variety of present day artefacts – in particular a project completed by the pupils Nether Alderley primary school. The best suggestions for what the children could include, from Esme, were buried in the container, along with another project based on predictions of what the future may hold! The ceremony was presided over by Cheshire East Ward Councillor, George Walton, who gave a speech and helped the children to plant the tree. Afterwards a reception was in the Parish Hall, laid on by Nether Alderley Parish Council, whose members provided food and refreshments for all guests. Jenny Shufflebottom, Chair of Nether Alderley Parish Council, said: “Every village needs a Norman Moore! We’re so glad to be able to honour him in this way, and to be able include children from the primary school as well was an absolute delight. “This was a real community effort, where all involved – including the stonemason, (Emery’s Monumental Services Ltd.) – provided services and provisions at their own expense. It was their way of recognising his dedication to the Parish.”

PRECEPT 2019/20Dear Residents, I am writing to you all to explain the recent increase in our Precept. I have been on the Parish Council since 2011 and I believe it is the first time since then that we have had to consider a significant increase. At our meeting on Monday, 7th January 2019, all members of the Parish Council agreed to an increase to meet its current obligations as well as the long overdue refurbishment of the Parish Hall. The Parish Council owns the hall and has a duty to maintain it to a standard “fit for the purpose” for the benefit of all the community. When we produced our Parish Plan in 2014 and asked for views from residents about the hall, the majority opinion was for our existing historic hall to be refurbished. Since then Councillors have been working hard behind the scenes, alongside architects and listed buildings experts to draw up plans for not only the refurbishment of the hall but to be able to provide a storage area by means of a small extension for equipment which at present we cannot provide. We are very close to having detailed plans available for all to view. We have also just completed a Business Plan which includes future marketing for the hall. As soon as the hall has been updated and is once again ‘fit for purpose’, it is envisaged that it will be self-funding and the hub of the community. As you may be aware, we were successful in securing some S106 money from the development at Alderley Park which will go a long way towards the refurbishment and gave us our initial platform to proceed with the repairs needed. However, as a result of the findings and recommendations of the following surveys: Condition Survey, Timber Survey, Mechanical and Electrical Survey, Measurement Survey and a Bat Survey, there is a shortfall. The works are extensive and include all remedial works necessary, along with new toilets, improved disabled access (at the moment there are several levels within the interior of the hall), new heating lighting etc. and as mentioned earlier, a small extension to the rear of the hall. After much deliberation, the Parish Council approved that the shortfall should be spread over a two year period (2019/20 and 2020/21) to mitigate these costs, after which the Precept will be reduced in line with day to day commitments. I can assure you that the decision was not taken lightly but with much due consideration. Therefore, the Parish Council’s Precept has been increased accordingly and for 2019-2020 will be £46,000.00 which equates to £90.08 for a Band D property. Whilst I appreciate that this is a significant rise for the next 2 years, we are minded that the hall is very much a community asset and myself and fellow Councillors believe that this is a fair way to raise the necessary monies which spreads the cost between all residents. I very much hope that you understand our reasoning. The Parish Council will hold an open event for all residents to come along to as soon as we have all our plans formalised. At which point we will be able to share our vision with all the residents and parishioners. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to discuss this further. Kind regards, Jenny Shufflebottom Chairman of Nether Alderley Parish Council 21. March, 2019Latest NewsComments Off on PRECEPT 2019/20 |

CHESHIRE POLICE ALERTSHave Your Say On How You Would Like To Contact Police In A Non-EmergencyPeople are being asked to give their views on how Cheshire Constabulary can make better use of technology to continue to provide the best possible service to the public. The Constabulary has launched an online Public Contact Survey to find out how the Cheshire public use technology and how people want to engage with police in an ever-changing digital world. The survey should take no longer than five-minutes to complete and asks questions around how you like to keep in contact with people in general and how you would like to be able to contact police in a non-emergency. The Constabulary’s options for contacting police in a non-emergency are currently by dialling 101 (the police non-emergency number), visiting an enquiry desk at a local police station, speaking to an officer in person at a local police surgery or contacting a named officer via the Cheshire Police website. Acting Assistant Chief Constable Ngaire Waine said: “We are all now living in a world where we are rapidly becoming more and more reliant on technology and having to adapt to the many daily tasks we do. As we let more technology into our lives, it is changing the way we keep in touch with each other and the way we access our goods and services. “With this in mind, we’re keen to hear from as many Cheshire residents as possible to find out how they are now using new technology and whether they would like us to make it more available for accessing police services. “The information will be used to help shape and improve how our residents can access police services in non-emergencies situations in the future, and how we can improve our contact with them. “It is important to point out that the results of this survey will in in no way effect our 999 service and people should always dial 999 where there is a threat to life or a crime is in progress.” The Public Contact Survey can be accessed online via the link below or by visiting the Cheshire Constabulary website.

CHESHIRE POLICE ALERTSTheft Of Keyless Entry VehiclesWe’ve seen an increase in the number of keyless car and van thefts. If your vehicle has keyless entry, check to see if the fob can be turned off. If it can, then do so overnight – don’t make it easy for thieves! In response to the recent rise in car and van thefts in the area we’re asking those who own a car or van with keyless entry to please review your security – consider additional security devices such as mechanical locks and trackers. Did you know that keyless entry cars need software updates? Keep yours secure – ask your car dealer or manufacturer what updates you can take advantage of. If you have a keyless entry car or van, think about how you store your key at home. Keeping your fob out of sight is not enough – thieves only need to get near to the key to amplify the signal. Keep both sets of keys in a container or pouch which blocks the signal from the fob. Over the last couple of months we’ve seen an increase in the number of thefts of keyless entry cars and vans – follow our top tips to keep yours secure: Message Sent By 25.

ACTION FRAUDLonely Hearts Romance Fraudster AlertThe NFIB have become aware of techniques used by romance fraudsters against people using dating sites. Not only will they steal your heart they will steal your money and your identification. When you think you’ve met the perfect partner through an online dating website or app, but the other person is using a fake profile to form a relationship with you. They’re using the site to gain your trust and ask you for money or enough personal information to steal your identity. A dating fraudster, previously involved in deceiving people that wanted a friendship explained how they would create fake accounts with social media platforms so that their details matched and could be searched. By appearing to be a real person their fake persona could be corroborated by prospective partners searching their background and believe them to be genuine. The fraudster said: “People like to live in fairy tales to say it won’t happen to me. I make sure all my conversations are bespoke. I will show insecurity myself about trusting people and this helps allude to them that I’m genuine.” The fraudster will also utilise as many accessible online research tools to explore people’s information for their own personal gain or sell onwards. The fraudster elaborated and explained: “I use various online directories to find out about the person. Once I have enough, I use it to milk everything I can using their details or sell them on to other fraudsters via the dark web” When asked how people could check if a person is real. The romance fraudster offered advice for others searching for a relationship. They told us that after you see a picture of them: “Ask for them to send you another photo of themselves posing with their thumbs up or waving. It’s like a form of 2 factor authentication and makes it hard to do if it’s not an original picture” What you need to do · Avoid sharing too many personal details when on online dating profiles. Revealing your full name, date of birth, or full home address may lead to your identity being stolen. · Never respond to any requests to send money, or have money transferred into your account by someone you don’t know and trust. These types of requests should always raise a red flag. If something feels wrong then it is usually right to question it. · Pick a reputable dating website or app, and use the built-in messaging service. Fraudsters want to quickly switch to social media or texting so there’s no evidence of them asking you for money. Message Sent By 14. February, 2019Latest NewsComments Off on ACTION FRAUD |

ACTION FRAUDHM Revenue and Customs AlertWhat you need to know. Action Fraud has experienced an increase in the reporting of malicious calls, voicemails, text messages or emails to members of the public purporting to be from HMRC. The fraudsters state that as a result of their non-payment of tax or other duty, the victim is liable to prosecution or other legal proceedings such as repossession of belongings to settle the balance but can avoid this by arranging for payment to be made immediately by method such as bank transfer or by iTunes gift cards. If the victim is hesitant or refuses to comply, the suspect makes a threat such as immediate arrest, bailiffs or in cases where the victim appears to be of overseas origin; deportation. Often, the period for which the tax is allegedly due is distant enough to guarantee the victim will have little, if any, paperwork or ability to verify the claims. Once the money is paid the suspects sever all contact. It is vital that the public exercise caution when receiving messages or telephone calls of this nature. What you need to do Listen to your instincts. If something feels wrong then it is usually right to question it. No genuine organisation will ask you to pay taxes, bills or fees using iTunes Gift Cards, or any other type of voucher. Don’t be rushed or pressured into making a decision. Under no circumstances would a genuine bank or some other trusted organisation force you to make a financial transaction on the spot. Report Phishing attempts. If you receive a call, text or email of this nature and have not lost money, report this as a phishing attempt to Action Fraud. Message Sent By 11.

BREW WITH THE CREWGet your brew on!
The North West Air Ambulance Charity is very excited to launch its first integrated fundraising and engagement campaign, Brew with the Crew, during Air Ambulance Week. Built on the northern obsession with drinking large amounts of tea, planning Brew with the Crew brought together teams from throughout the charity. It aims to be an easy activity for people to build into their day, drinking tea with their own crew and raising money for the charity’s lifesaving work. The campaign launches throughout Air Ambulance Week, 10 – 16 September, at North West Air Ambulance Charity (NWAA) shops and other locations in the region. People are asked to hold their own Brew with the Crew the week of 15 – 21 October or throughout the year. Heather Arrowsmith, NWAA Chief Executive, says: “We wanted to build a campaign that brought all of our teams together and involved everyone throughout the organisation. It’s been great to see people working alongside each other. All over a brew, of course!” “Our crew love their brews too but they leave behind thousands of mugs of cold tea a year – not drunk because they’ve been called out on a potentially lifesaving mission. I’m sure the generous people of the North West will take Brew with the Crew to their hearts, just as they have with the crew themselves.” We would love you to join us in having a Brew and raising funds for this fantastic cause. To get your free Brew with the Crew pack, go to www.nwaa.net/bwtc or ring 0800 587 4570. Best Wishes, Deb Millican The North West Air Ambulance Charity’s helicopters fly 365 days a year, with the doctors and paramedics on board providing rapid treatment and hospital transfers to patients across the entire North West region each year – an area covering 5,500 square miles and 8 million people. Since it launched in 1999, the charity has flown more than 20,000 missions across the region, with the ambulance called out an average of five times a day, rising to ten in summer. Just as many critically injured patients would not survive without the service that the charity provides, the North West Air Ambulance would not be here without the support of its community of fundraisers and partners. The charity is completely reliant on public and corporate donations to keep the North West’s Air Ambulance Charity helicopters operational and helping to save lives, needing to raise over £8 million a year to support its lifesaving service.

THANKS TO OUR GROUNDSMANMost of us will at some time visited a rural historic church, similar to St. Mary’s and noticed in some cases that the burial ground is uncared for. Here in Nether Alderley we are extremely lucky to see that our church, church yard and burial ground are kept in pristine condition. In the burial ground this is mainly due to the hard work put in by Norman Moore, Nether Alderley Parish Council’s groundsman. Many of you will have seen Norman working in the burial ground without really knowing much about him. In April 2018, Norman completed 40th year maintaining the burial ground. Norman, aged 73, has lived in Nether Alderley for 57 years and has served the Parish in many ways, including being Parish Hall caretaker for 35 years and caretaker of Nether Alderley Primary School for 5 years in the 1970s. This was in addition to his work for local farmers. Every Parish would benefit by having a ‘Norman’ and Nether Alderley is very lucky indeed that he is ours. Thank you Norman.

ACTION FRAUDNfib Alert – Bogus Overseas OfficersFraudsters are contacting overseas students and visitors who are in the UK via their mobile phone or social network account and purporting to represent UK or foreign law enforcement. After fraudsters have claimed to work with their respective embassy or government, they tell the victim that there is evidence in the form of forged documentation or parcels which implicate them in a crime such as money laundering, fraud or immigration offences. After demanding further personal details from the victim such as their name, current address and copies of personal documentation, they threaten the victim by suggesting a warrant exists for their arrest which will result in their deportation and imprisonment unless they transfer a payment to them in order to cancel the arrest or pay a fine. Once the money is transferred, all contact between the victim and the fraudster is severed. What You Need To Do: Message Sent By 20. August, 2018Latest NewsComments Off on ACTION FRAUD |

STAKEHOLDER BULLETIN – August 2018Welcome to the latest edition of the stakeholder bulletin with news, information and updates from Cheshire Constabulary on behalf of the Chief Constable and the Police & Crime Commissioner. You are receiving this newsletter as a valued stakeholder. In recent weeks we have experienced high periods of demand on the 101 service which means that people have been waiting longer than normal during peak times. This is a national issue that many other forces are also experiencing but we are pleased to report that the picture has improved in Cheshire. There were a number of reasons behind the increase in demand including the unexpected and prolonged hot weather, repeat calls and the public’s understanding about when to ring 101. A lot of the demand is being driven by the public requesting information or asking for help with issues that the police do not actually deal with such as noise nuisance, dog fouling and fly tipping and these can be addressed by other agencies – including local authorities and housing associations. It is important for people to know that when they do need to speak to the police about a non-emergency issue there are better ways of getting in touch without having to pick up the phone. Although the situation has improved we would like to take the opportunity to highlight the range of options that are available which may provide a quicker and more efficient service than calling 101. These include: Face-to-Face – Visit your local police station/helpdesk or speak to your local Police Community Support Officer. Cheshire has a dedicated PCSO in every ward across the county. They are a vital part of policing and an important connection between the force and local communities providing a familiar face as a point of contact. Details of surgeries are available via the Cheshire Police website. General Contact Form – If you have a general query, are seeking advice or, for example, want to notify the police of a planned event. Go to www.cheshire.police.uk/contact/general-enquiries Contact an Officer Form – This is a quicker way to request to speak to a named officer allocated to your case and is useful for when officers are not on duty. Go to www.cheshire.police.uk/contact/contact-an-officer Incident Update Form – If you want to request an update on an incident go to www.cheshire.police.uk/contact/incident-update-form Local Priorities Form – To report an ongoing issue in your area that you want to highlight as needing action go to www.cheshire.police.uk/local-policing Speeding Issues – For reporting issues with speeding drivers go to www.cheshire.police.uk/advice-and-support/roads-and-vehicle-safety/speeding Other Agencies – Your local authority or housing association deals with issues including noise nuisance, dog fouling and fly tipping. We are making a concerted effort to educate the public to ensure they know that many of their issues can be dealt with more effectively in other ways and it is not always necessary to pick up the phone and call 101. In some cases 101 will be the best option and we will continue to inform people of when it is appropriate to use 101 to give the public a more efficient service and to allow us to deal effectively with crime. The 101 number should be used to report a crime that has already taken place or to pass on information about a crime. The public should always call 999 where there is a threat to life or a crime is in progress. More information is available on our website www.cheshire.police.uk/hereforyou Your support is always appreciated and we would encourage you to spread the word about this important issue via your networks. Thank you, 13. August, 2018Latest NewsComments Off on STAKEHOLDER BULLETIN – August 2018 |
