Waltham on the Wolds: Beat surgery

April 29th, 2009 | Posted by Admin

There will be a ‘beat surgery’ at Waltham on the Wolds village hall on Tuesday 14th July, from 7-9pm. It will provide an opportunity for residents to express their concerns, and to hear what measures the police are taking to protect us from crime. There’s no need to book – just come along to the Harry Hunt room.

Melton Police are holding a number of these beat surgeries over coming months. There’s one in Hose next week, and another in Long Clawson in June. There’s a page on the police website which should hold details of all forthcoming events. Click here to view it (although neither events were showing when I just looked).
