Important Messages from Dorset Police

Door step charity collectors

Just to make you aware that we have been informed that there will be door to door charity collectors operating in the area of North Dorset during the month of December.  We advise everyone to check the identity of anyone when dealing with them on the doorstep and advise again not to give out any personal information.  Many organisations use this method of fundraising by collecting peoples details and setting up direct debits to support the charity, but we strongly advise you to always check peoples identity and if unsure obtain information yourself from the charity to organise supporting them..  Dorset Police has not vetted or referred any organisation that might be operating door to door. If in doubt keep them out!

Important notice from Dorset Police

Cold Callers

On Thursday 27th November 2014 a suspicious vehicle was reported in the Child Okeford area. Police attended the incident and spoke with the occupants of the vehicle who were in the area canvassing for business.

Please be aware that if you require work to be completed in or around your home then it may be better to arrange to have these works completed by local tradesmen yourself, rather than employing and therefore encouraging cold callers.

A theft of red diesel has occurred overnight on the 27th November 2014 from a yard in Todber, Sturminster Newton. A red Nissan Primera was seen in the area acting suspiciously. If anyone has any information then please contact Dorset Police on 101.

Find out more about how the NHS is working in Dorset

Local people can find out all about the state of NHS health care in the county at a series of events hosted by Dorset CCG in December. The events have been organised as part of the major review of NHS services being carried out by the CCG, the organisation responsible for planning and funding healthcare in Dorset.

The aim of the review, which was launched in October, is to ensure that everybody in Dorset has access to safe, high-quality health care, which makes the most of clinical advances and best practice, while being sustainable and affordable in the long-term. The review grew out of last summer’s Big Ask, a huge survey when the public was asked to tell us about their experiences of the NHS, what works well and what they thought needs to be changed.

The review has been gathering evidence which gives a detailed picture of NHS care in Dorset – everything from numbers of treatments and procedures provided for patients, predicted demand in the future, financial information and patients’ views and experiences. This evidence has been compiled into a ‘Case for Change’, setting out where there are challenges with current provision, and why local service provision needs to change in the future.

GPs and other clinicians will be using this evidence to consider what changes could be made to health services. However, no changes will be made without a full public consultation, which will take place in the summer of 2015.

Dr Forbes Watson, Chair of NHS Dorset CCG, the organisation leading the Review, said:

“I hope local people will take the opportunity to come along in December and hear about the evidence we have collected about patients’ needs, clinical performance and finances that demonstrate why changes to current services are essential. People told us what they thought of services in the Big Ask and now we want to show them our evidence about how health care is being delivered in Dorset. We want people to tell us if the Case for Change is clear and understandable, and if there is additional information that we need to consider.”

The three events will be held at:

  • The Barrington Centre, Ferndown, BH22 9TH 6pm – 8pm, Monday 8 December 2014,
  • The Exchange, Old Market Hill, Sturminster Newton, DT10 1FH 10am – 12pm, Wednesday 10 December 2014
  • Herrison Hall, Charlton Down, Dorchester, DT2 9UA 2.30pm – 4.30pm, Thursday 11 December 2014
