Chatham: Neighbourhood Watch, Catching Nuisance Vehicles

 

With the warmer weather comes an increase in nuisance vehicles on our green spaces and off-road areas. 

Neighbourhood Watch did a lot of work on off road vehicles last summer in the Chatham area and we found that the most effective and efficient way of dealing with this nuisance is to gather evidence, identify offenders and surprise them at their homes.

Often people will call us and tell us there are off road bikes with a limited description. What would really help us would be?

Any clear picture or videos of offenders (but don’t put yourself at any risk getting them)

Licence plate numbers (if vehicles have them)

Accompanying vehicles – often nuisance bikes travel to off road areas in vans or on trailers. Tell us the registrations of the accompanying vehicles!

Is it your neighbour? Are your neighbours or the family across the road always going out on these bikes but you don’t say as you don’t want to fall out with them?

Lincoln University research survey for military families with neurodiverse children

 

University of Lincoln are running a tri-Service survey for military families who have neurodiverse children (both diagnosed and not diagnosed). They want to know what support families are receiving, and what support they don't have but that would be helpful.

Researchers hope to have a large response to enable them to move forward with establishing services to support families in the future.

The survey is linked here, which starts with the full information sheet. The survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. https://unioflincoln.questionpro.eu/t/AB3u0MjZB3vtay
