Beauty Spots targeted by thieves

Beauty spot car parks are once again being targeted by thieves looking to steal from vehicles. There have been a number of thefts from cars in the car parks at Headley and surround. Two vehicles have also been targeted in car parks around Mickleham, as well as car parks on Ranmore, Westhumble, Coldharbour and Boxhill. Again, we urge people not to take belongings with them if they are going to leave them in their vehicles.

Unfortunately hiding your belongings will not stop the thief as they are most probably watching where you hide them. I would ask that you to tell people about this in a bid to help us reduce the amount of theft from vehicles this year. If you see suspicious activity in car parks please call us immediately.

Rise in dwelling and non-dwelling burglaries

There has been a rise in the amount of dwelling and non dwelling burglaries in the area of late. In particular farms have been targeted with thieves stealing virtually anything they can get their hands on. Welling Barn Farm at Russ Hill has been the subject of damages also.

Lawn damaged at Brockham Bowls Club

Brockham Bowls Club suffered yet more damage to the turf over the school half term. It’s strongly believed youths are the perpetrators and we appeal for any information as to who may be causing the damage. Again any suspicious activity should be reported to us immediately. More...

White Ford Escort Van and white Renault 19

Please keep an eye out for a White Ford Escort van registration number J38BGT. This has been seen on many occasions in the area acting suspiciously particularly on Headley and Boxhill areas. If seen please report it immediately to us. Also please bear in mind a white Renault 19 registration number F851SPH. This vehicle is believed to be involved in dwelling burglaries. Any sightings to be reported to us immediately please.

Graffitti offender caught

We had good results with reference to Graffitti which had been plastered virtually all over the town and in some rural villages. The offender was arrested and dealt with for over 40 offences.

Parents still ignoring Keep Clear markings

Some parents dropping off and collecting children from school at Brockham continue to park on the yellow lines outside the school and disregard the safety of other road users and pedestrians, despite my letter for help in this matter, sent to all parents/guardians. I appeal to them again, not to park on that area and to exercise due diligence and care for others around them, especially when opening doors and moving off. I am still receiving complaints about this problem.

Thank you.
