Dear residents of HOLLINSWOOD AND STIRCHLEY,

We are working hard to tackle Anti-social behaviour (ASB) in HOLLINSWOOD and the information provided to us by residents can be essential in taking action to make a difference where you live.

Work carried out at DUFFRYN Underpass

We have had reports of ASB in the underpass between DUFFRYN and DANESFORD, this includes large gathering of youths dressed in balaclavas leaving copious amounts of litter, alcohol bottles and starting fires causing fire damage and debris in the area. We are working with the Fire Service, Telford and Wrekin Council and Hollinswood Parish Council to tackle these issues.

If you have any issues with this area please let us know so we can target our response.

In an emergency, if you or your property are at risk, or a crime is in progress call 999.

If you aren’t comfortable contacting us directly, you can pass on information anonymously to the independent charity, Crimestoppers, by calling 0800 555 111 or by visiting their website: www.crimestoppers-uk.org

Thank you for your help. It is only by the police and the public working together that we can prevent and detect crime. 

Kind regards,

PC ARTHUR
