Local Policing

Dear residents of Kirton,

Firstly I would like to apologise for not having an article in the last months Kirton News due to many changes at the Kirton Police office.
Since January 2010 I have been the PCSO for the South Rural beats of Boston and joined by PC Martin Appleby.

Unfortunately due to welfare issues I have moved from the South Rural beat and I have joined Boston Urban East Neighbourhood Policing Team.
I have thoroughly enjoyed the last 4 months working at Kirton and policing the south rural beats, and hope to be back in the future.

Kirton has had a change of many faces since the beginning of 2010. PCSO Stuchfield who was working temporary at Kirton has moved beats and now working in Woodhall Spa. PC Martin Appleby has been the Community Beat Manager at Kirton for 3 months and is out and about meeting the local communities.

PCSO Neil Williams has returned to the Boston Neighbourhood Policing Team and is back working from the Kirton office. He is currently the PCSO for the Wyberton neighbourhood. He can be contacted at the Kirton office or on his mobile 07939886327.
Kirton has a new PCSO, Jon Thornton. Jon has been out on patrol for 2 weeks and is covering the Kirton and Sutterton beats. PCSO Thornton can be contacted at Kirton Police Station on 01205 722002 or his mobile 07944776733.

The Boston South Rural Neighbourhood Policing team has a vacancy for one PCSO. In the near future new PCSO’s will be recruited within Lincolnshire Police and one will be based at Kirton.

After reading April’s Kirton News I noticed a mistake in the Neighbourhood Policing Article. The new non-emergency number for Lincolnshire Police was incorrect. The non-emergency number is 0300 111 0300 and is now in use.

Since 1st May 2010 there has been 20 reports of Anti Social Behaviour in the village Hot spot areas for youths gathering and being anti social are behind the Kirton Town Hall, Graves Park playing field, Church Lane building site and the old Case Tractor factory.. The necessary action is being taken with the youths and any offences they are committing. The South Rural Neighbourhood Policing Team is working with: Response and Patrol officers, Boston Borough Council ASB case workers, Boston, Mayflower Housing, Parish councils, CCTV, Childrens Services and other local agencies. If you witness any ASB in your area please call 0300 111 0300.

“Don’t suffer it, report it.” If anyone wished to speak to myself you can contact me at Boston Neighbourhood Policing Team on 01205 312375.

If you wish to speak with your local Neighbourhood Policing Team they can be contacted on 01205 722002.

Regards

PCSO Nicole Page.
