Weekly round-up from your local Neighbourhood Team

Weekly Round-Up from Your Local Neighbourhood Team

Hello Resident,

I hope you are well.

✅ Good News from Your Local Policing Team ✅

Your local neighbourhood policing team continues to carry out regular patrols across Merry Hill, responding to community concerns and working proactively to keep the area safe.

Through ongoing engagement with residents, local partners and community groups, officers and PCSOs have been gathering intelligence, providing reassurance patrols and supporting crime prevention initiatives across the ward.

You Said, We Did

On Monday 6 July, members of the neighbourhood team attended our Community Drop-In Session at Warstones Library. It was great to speak with local residents about issues affecting the area, answer questions, provide crime prevention advice and listen to concerns and suggestions from the community.

These conversations help us better understand local priorities and ensure our patrols and policing activity are focused on the matters that are most important to residents.

🚗 Operation Snap – Helping Improve Road Safety 🚗

Did you know that members of the public can help improve road safety by reporting dangerous driving through Operation Snap?

Operation Snap is a West Midlands Police initiative that allows road users to submit video footage of driving offences they have witnessed. This may include:

Using a mobile phone whilst driving

Dangerous or careless driving

Failing to stop at red traffic lights

Close passes of cyclists

Other moving traffic offences

If you have dashcam footage, helmet camera footage or other video evidence of a driving offence, it can be submitted online for review by specially trained officers.

By working together, we can all help make our roads safer for everyone.

📹 Register Your CCTV

To help officers investigate incidents and identify offenders more effectively, we encourage residents and businesses to register their CCTV systems.

Even a simple doorbell camera can act as a deterrent and provide valuable evidence when needed.
