Hello,
I am just writing this as I tidy up to go leave tonight. The team have busy busy with a variety of stuff today - PC Sharon Conway had an arrest to make following a forensic hit at a cannabis factory she found on a warrant a few weeks ago. The arrest was made and more stuff was found at this premises, that will keep her busy for a while. PC Jeanette Denton did an Op Stop (where we stop vehicles to talk to drivers at locations that have been brought to our notice) at Chapel where people have complained of speeding vehicles due to the diversion with Central Bridge being closed. She did the operation with several PCSOs and assisted by a PC from the rsponse team - and they ended up issuing 6 tickets for various offences.
Last night we had the St Marys PACT meeting. The community priorities were changed to youth groups in Holyrood Estate, drug use in and around Albion Towers Play Area and Drug use in the bin area of Carpathia Drive. The meeting was well attended and we had some good discussions. We have spoken to some of the other agencies to try to solve these issues - or certainly reduce them.
That is it - a short one tonight, I am off on leave and will update once I am back on 9 August
Cheers
Dick

I have left the area but I find this blog interesting as it keeps me in touch with old places. Your team is amazing and is always getting results. I was pleased in particular to read about the yellow card scheme, which also seems to be working well. I must say I had never heard of this before. I question the wisdom in moving you to the cells. I hope it will be temporary and I sincerely hope the blog continues.
