Parish Council recently invited me to talk to them in my role
as the Rural Housing Enabler (employed by RCCE) about
finding out if this is the case in your community.
In order to identify if this is an issue in Hatfield Heath a
questionnaire that will come with the next edition of the
village magazine along with a Freepost envelope to return it

report for the parish council but the councillors won’t see the
forms because all responses are treated in confidence. From
this report we will be able to see if there is a need for a small
development of affordable housing for local people. By
‘affordable’ we mean rented and shared ownership
properties that are kept for people with a local connection to
the parish in perpetuity so not just the first occupants but all
for years to come.

from cars overnight. Please be aware and report
suspicious behaviour.

Sheds are also being targeted and I would urge residents
to consider photographing items of value and record any
serial numbers or equipment such as lawn mowers and
hedge cutters. Residents should make efforts to secure
outbuildings and where possible give consideration to
lighting and alarms.

Please pass the word to other local residents that
anything suspicious should be reported. Local officers
are committed to bringing to justice those who commit
offences and would relish the opportunity to convict
those responsible.
If you see something happening (suspect breaking into a
shed or car) phone 999. Any other behaviour that is
deemed non urgent should be reported to Essex Police

NOT ALLOWED
No electrical goods (have to be recycled) No paint tins

No cardboard you should put this out with your

Young people need to socialise as part of their normal STICKY FINGERS

dearly in the longer term.
Youth shelters are not the whole solution – young people
may also need more structured environments such as
youth clubs, organised activities, drop-in cafés, advice and
counselling services – but shelters and sports systems can
make up an important part of the youth development
jigsaw. Failure to invest in facilities that young people
want is a false economy. This guide shows you how to
invest wisely and I commend it to anyone who wants to
improve the future for all our citizens.
