Neighbourhood team engage with older Twyford residents

Thames Valley Police Twyford neighbourhood policing team are visiting the Polehampton Sheltered Accommodation centre to talk to older residents in the community about their concerns.

Twyford Police Community Support Officer (PCSO) Anne Chalmers said: “I have arranged to visit the residents to offer advice on areas of policing they may be affected by and listen to their concerns.

“I hope to talk to them about rogue traders, home security, bogus callers and anti-social behaviour.

“It is also an ideal opportunity to talk to them about specific concerns around fireworks and bonfire night.

“I will also be offering the residents personal alarms.

“Older people are sometimes not as mobile and able to get to our police surgeries so we thought it was important to reach out to them in this way.”

PCSO Chalmers will be at the centre from 10.30am on Wednesday (4/11).
