I was please to go out in support of one of the local Street Watch Groups. These volunteers are not there to replace the Police but support them.
They often help to give reassurance to older residents and report issues of concern to the Police. They are extra eyes and ears for the Police who due to Government cuts have not got the numbers to patrol our streets in any number.
This week Darleydale Ave, Delhurst Road, The Aldridge Recreation Ground and parts of the new Booths Lane estate and the Aldridge Road were covered.
More volunteers are needed to cover more of Oscott please contact me if you would like further details
