Community Safety Message
Bodmin Town Council is asking for the support of parents, guardians and local residents following an increase in reports of nuisance and antisocial behaviour across some of our sites, particularly around:
• Priory Park, and the toilets by the car park
• Fair Park, and the toilets at this location
• The Bodmin Preschool area.
We have seen a number of incidents involving young people, including damage to public facilities and individuals climbing onto the roofs of council buildings. These actions not only result in costly repairs but also present a risk of injury.
We are also aware that some members of our community have felt intimidated or concerned by this behaviour, and we understand the impact this can have on residents, visitors and local organisations.
As the evenings become darker and we approach Halloween, we would ask parents and carers to be aware of where their children are, who they are with, and what they are doing. We all have a role to play in keeping our community safe and welcoming for everyone.
If you witness suspicious, antisocial or criminal behaviour, please report it to Devon & Cornwall Police by calling 101, or 999 in an emergency.
Thank you for your support in helping us look after our town and community facilities.
Bodmin Town Council
