There may be frustrations by landowners as to the
manner in which the legislation is applied. However,
landowners are requested to remain patient and not to
engage in any activity toward the travellers that is
unlawful or discriminatory. Essex Police will deal with
all breaches of legislation in a positive way. This
includes any offences committed by Landowners.

It is requested that landowners are continually mindful
of The Equality Act 2010 which affords protection to
Romany Gypsies and Irish Travellers. It is unlawful to
treat someone less favorably on the grounds of Colour

NEXT RURAL CRIME PROBLEM?
ILLEGALLY FELLING TREES
OR REMOVING WOOD,

Timber thefts are on the rise in rural areas as the popularity
of log-burning stoves increases demand for firewood. Crim-
inals have been quick to spot the market, with a jump in
thefts of timber - even entire trees - across the countryside.
The growing popularity of log-burning stoves and open
fires means people have to source wood to burn to keep
themselves warm.
Thieves are stealing felled timber from woodlands and
roadsides in Lincolnshire and it's having a knock-on effect
because in many instances they are robbing conservation
groups of vital income.
Wildlife charities and woodland trusts often rely on sales of
timber to make ends meet - but the thieves are getting in
first.
Foresters and conservation workers say they have seen
thefts of timber steadily increase over the past five years as
families faced with soaring oil, gas and electricity prices
desperately try to find alternative fuel sources.
Could this be our next rural crime problem?
If you see anyone who you suspect of illegally felling trees
or removing wood, please contact your local police. If you
witness a crime being committed, where possible, (and if it
is safe to do so), please dial 999 at the time, that you see it
happening.
Kind regards,
Colin

either. He was a great sportsman and very competitive he
never entered a competition with out trying his hardest to

half of this year with a visit to one of our local “yellow

unusual plants and seen in the evening sunlight, which
we were privileged to do, was a magical experience.

We have also visited Hidcote Manor Garden in

social in one of our member’s gardens.

Talks have included “Essex Gardens”, “Colour in
