Your Acton BID monthly achievements: April 2023

Acton

For the months of April, the Acton BID reported various issues such as:

  • Over 29 issues of fly tipping incidents.
  • 19 counts of graffiti on business shop fronts and street furniture.
  • 3 other types of incidents, including streets not clean, pavement issues and abandoned bicycles.

My Local Bobby team has attended various incidents which includes:

  • 15 incidents related to beggars.
  • 14 incidents related to Antisocial behaviours (i.e., street drinking, noise disturbance, etc.).
  • 30 incidents related to crime (i.e., shoplifting, theft).

During this period the team reported known theft offences with an amount totalling approximately £1291. Out of this amount, a total of £383 was recovered at the time of the offence. A majority of the offences were reported to the team afterwards and they were not necessarily able to locate the suspect to retrieve the goods.

We have also continued to host our breakfast networking event on April 28th at the George and Dragon Pub. We had a successful Easter Bunny Trail with over 300 scans and 126 participated with one lucky winner of the Easter hamper! The beautiful weather during Easter break did help to find the bunnies hidden in the businesses around Acton.
