Van Security
Your latest Smart Alert.
You may be aware that there has been a spate recently, across Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent, of vans being broken into and having large quantities of tools stolen.
It is believed offenders are using gadgets that enable them to bypass locking mechanisms and enter vans without causing any damage leaving them free to steal the contents.
There are many products available over the internet to combat this problem and van owners are being asked to consider having their vehicles sufficiently protected.
Simply type ‘ford transit anti pick lock’ into your internet search engine to find companies offering for sale van security products.
You can also find more vehicle security advice at www.thatcham.org

meet
Matthew Ellis
Staffordshire Police Commissioner
on Wednesday October 12th 2016
at 7.30pm
at All Saints’ Village Hall
Milwich
to discuss Rural Crime and Personal Security
The Council will be meeting at 7.30pm on August 17th at Fradswell Village Hall and on September 21st at Green Lea School
Minutes and Agenda to follow when available.
The refuse vehicle will visit the Village Hall car park on Sat 20th August from 9-10am to collect all refuse, especially bulky items
James Kaufman, a Police Dog Handler, explained how he became a Police Cadet for Staffordshire at the age of 18¾years, after 4 years he accepted the position of a Police Officer and after just 1 year he was seconded to the Dog Section and completed a 13 week course. After a further 5 years he became a Dog Handler Trainer and is now a Dog Legislation Officer, which means he deals with dangerous dogs and their problems which may affect the law.
James discussed with members the breeds of dogs the police use, which are usually German Shepherds, Dutch Herders, Belgium Malamars, Labradors and Spaniels. The first three breeds tend to be used for tracking to find people who are trapped or who are hiding, the Labradors and Spaniels are search dogs and used for Drugs, Firearms and Cash used by villains. Dogs smelling ability is up to 40K better than humans, their hearing is multi directional and their eye sight is very accurate. Police Forces tend to use breeding schemes to acquire their dogs as well as from suppliers who breed dogs for work. Dogs are usually 12 months old before training. In conclusion to his talk members were introduced the Ralph, his Golden Labrador who enjoyed playing with his ball as well as meeting the members!
On August 24th Members are meeting for afternoon tea at Marsh Farm, Abbotts Bromley and in September Mac Joseph’s talk is entitled “Birmingham Back to Backs”

Our June meeting was postponed until July 7th, when we went on a trip to Denby Pottery, and then on to Felley Priory Gardens. We felt a bit disloyal, being Stoke on Trent born and bred, buying pottery from Derbyshire- but what can you do? The gardens at Felley Priory are quite simply stunning, and the weather was quite perfect for strolling around and sitting on strategically placed garden seats. Our thanks go to Frances Evans for organising the trip so efficiently. Can’t wait for the next one.
On August 25th, we welcome Mrs. Anita Wright, whose talk, entitled “Let’s Get Ready” will be useful to anyone preparing exhibits for the Annual Show. The Show this year will be on September 3rd, and all entries must be entered between 9am and 12 noon, on the day. You do not have to be a Produce Guild Member to enter the Show.
The meeting on September 22nd will see the return of Graham and Judy White, who will talk on “A Collector’s Dilemma”
