Public Notice: Criminal Damage and Theft at Miners Welfare Skate Park

The North Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) has received an increase in reports from Cinderford Town Council regarding incidents of criminal damage at Miners Welfare Skate Park.

We remind all users that these facilities are provided for public enjoyment, with the expectation that they are treated with care and respect. The police are working closely with the council to investigate these matters, including a recent and concerning report of a stolen safety chain from the swing. This is the second such theft in recent weeks.

The absence of this safety chain poses a serious risk to users if left unnoticed. Continued incidents of this nature may result in certain equipment being cordoned off and made unavailable to the public in the interest of safety.

Your cooperation in protecting and preserving this community facility is greatly appreciated.

Please note, we're unable to accept reports of crime through Your Neighbourhood Alerts. You can report non-emergency crime online here. Always call 999 in an emergency.
