| Looking SWISH in SANDIACRE

Sandiacre officers from the local neighbourhood team were down on Doncaster Avenue Recreation Ground today where they provided and fixed badly needed new basketball nets. The work was done in collaboration with Sandiacre Parish Council who own and operate the park and sports court area.

One of our officers, a keen basketball fan, was made aware of an initiative by which is Basketball England’s mission to improve outdoor basketball courts and improvements across England.

Since 2019, has provided and distributed more than 10,000 free nets, identified thousands of places to play and supported dozens of court upgrades

The local children and young adults were keen to get using the nets straight away, even challenging the police team to a bit of a basketball shoot out!

| Door to door sales scams in Derbyshire.

We have received several recent reports of rogue door to door salesmen in Derbyshire who sell cleaning goods but then vastly overcharge.

They are particularly targeting elderly and vulnerable people – if you have any older family members, friends or neighbours please check in with them to make them aware of the scam.

Our advice is do not open the door to or engage with anyone trying to sell goods, or to anyone you don’t know or are not expecting.

PC Peter Herrett from our Fraud Unit said: “There is a cross county operation targeting the activities of these criminals to bring them to justice and prevent future victims.

“In the meantime, we’re asking you to share this message far and wide, and if you see any suspicious activity to please report it to us.”

Recent incidents have been reported in Codnor, Draycott and Sandiacre, but there may have been unreported cases across the county.

| Off Road Bike Nuisance

Following multiple reports of nuisance Off-Road motorbikes and e-bikes in Sandiacre, officers have and will continue to carry out operations in the area to resolve the problem.

This weekend one bike was seized by officers as part of the operation and a Section 59 warning has been issued.

Our specially trained have been patrolling on motorbikes around the area along with other plain clothed and uniformed officers.

These operations will continue and further bikes will be seized if used illegally and dangerously on public roads and places.

If anyone knows the identity of anyone riding or using an illegal off-road bike or causing ASB by using one please call on 101 to report this or call crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 https://crimestoppers-uk.org/fearless/give-information-anonymously

* A Section 59 warning, under the Police Reform Act 2002, is a formal notification given by a police officer to a driver whose vehicle use is causing alarm, distress, or annoyance to the public, or is considered careless or inconsiderate driving. If the driver repeats this behaviour within 12 months, the police can seize and remove the vehicle.

| Town Centre ASB

Officers along with Erewash Borough Council Community Safety Partnership had meetings with several youths yesterday who attended Long Eaton Police Station with their parents following multiple issues of ASB in Long Eaton Town centre, specifically around fast food and retail premises within the town. The youths were all issued and signed up to Acceptable Behaviour Contracts (ABC's) outlining what is and what is not acceptable behaviour and outlined specific Terms and Conditions that must be met.

These ABC's are issued following multiple formal Anti Social Behaviour warnings being issued to an individual and they form part of our toolbox to help tackle ASB. We work using different informal methods that will reduce or stop the anti-social behaviour but failure to comply can and will lead to legal action being taken including such things as Civil Injunctions, Community Protection Notices and Criminal Convictions.

Thankfully, in Derbyshire, police reports of anti-social behaviour are lower than the England average, but we’re still committed to working with local communities to tackle these issues.

Anti-social behaviour (ASB) can impact on your quality of life and cause damage to our communities.

| Fun in the Sun @ Brooklands

We had the pleasure to attend Brooklands Primary school in Long Eaton yesterday afternoon where we took part in the afterschool fun and games. I think everyone we met enjoyed the chat to our team and being put in 'the cage' of the police van proved extremely popular with both adults and children alike. We were almost as popular as the Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Team for a change!... and the chance to climb in and out of a Fire Engine is hard to beat! 🤣

What a great afternoon, thanks for inviting us along.

| Friesland School Careers Event

PCSO's from Long Eaton Safer Neighbourhood Team including our dedicated Youth Engagement Officer were at Friesland School yesterday where they got involved in a careers day offering some valuable work skill based training. They carried out mock interviews with the students and provided written constructive feedback as well as discussing careers in policing with those that were interested in this as a vocation.

We have to say that this was a fantastic group of students to work with, all were extremely engaged and made the day very worth while for all involved.
