Dorset Police – Suspicious Activity

Good afternoon,

We have had a report this morning from a rural property in the Shaftesbury Rural area of suspicious vehicle at the entrance to their property on Monday evening.

The owner has reported this today as they have found a plait in the mane of one of the horses.

As North Dorset horsewatch, we have no evidence that suggests plaiting is used to mark horses for theft as we receive regular reports of plaiting but so far this year, there has only been one reported theft of horse in the whole of Dorset and that had no links to plaiting.

However, we would like to take this opportunity to remind all horse owners and rural residents to remain alert and to log details of any suspicious vehicles or people they see in the area.
These details can be called in on 101 or if a crime is in progress then 999.
You can also e mail details to your local officers through the Dorset Police website at www.dorset.police.uk

Don’t forget, you can meet the Horsewatch team tomorrow at Eccliffe Equestrian in Gillingham for mince pies and tack marking.

Thank you,
Kate 6268 and Vicki 5370

Dorset County Council – Youth Services Consultation

Local authority announces plans to cease funding 22 youth centres to save £1m.

Dorset County Council said it plans to target resources “where they are most needed” with youth workers operating in places such as schools and skate parks.   Read more at www.cypnow.co.uk/cyp/news/1154830/local-authority-announces-plans-to-cease-funding-22-youth-centres-to-save-gbp1m

Do you have a view on these plans?  Take part in the Youth Services in Dorset Consultation. 

As part of a six week engagement on the proposed changes to youth services in Dorset between 15 September and 27 October, young people, local communities and organisations across Dorset were asked to help shape the future of youth services by telling the Community Partnerships what was available in their local area and what was important to them.   There is now a public consultation running from 17 November to 16 December on a proposal to change the way youth services are provided and your views are needed.

The consultation proposal and access to the on-line survey is available on www.dorsetforyou.com/youth-services-consultation

If you have any further questions or would like further information please contact the Forward Together for Children programme team via FTforChildren@dorsetcc.gov.uk or 01305 225637.
