VAWG arrest!

Dear Residents,

I would like to share a brief community safety update.

Police recently arrested and charged an individual in connection with serious sexual boffence allegations within our local area. To protect the integrity of the ongoing legal process and respect those involved, I am unable to provide any further details at this time.

This outcome highlights the importance of reporting concerns and demonstrates the ongoing commitment of local policing teams and partner agencies to protecting our communities and pursuing those who pose a risk to others.

As a precaution, I would encourage parents, carers and guardians to take the opportunity to speak with their children about personal safety, both online and offline. Please remind children to:

While there is no information to suggest an increased risk to the wider community, safeguarding remains everyone's responsibility. By staying vigilant and maintaining open conversations with young people, we can help keep our children and communities safe.

If you have any concerns about child safety or suspicious behaviour, please report them to the police or the appropriate safeguarding agency.

Thank you for your continued support.

Kind regards,

Emmanuel Obeng Kouassi
