Good afternoon,

Police presence will remain high around the town centre due to groups of youths causing anti social behaviour and some carrying weapons, police will stop and search people in an attempt to stop this behaviour…please tell your children this is not a good idea and to stay away from gangs, there are youth clubs and other groups where they will be welcomed.

Please get in touch for more information.

On another note, on this day in history.

September 16th, 1620: Some 130 passengers and crew gird themselves for the long journey ahead as the Mayflower sails out of Plymouth, England, and heads west. What follows will be an arduous 60-plus-day voyage across the Atlantic Ocean to what the Pilgrims hope is a fresh start in America.

Stay safe and have a great day.
