Thefts from private areas of commercial and business properties
During the morning of Friday July 18th a property was stolen from a private area of the Bridport medical centre. During the same day a similar theft occurred at the Lyme Regis Medical centre. On both occasions bags were stolen from areas, which are out of bounds to public access. After the thefts were discovered an unknown male purporting to be from a bank fraud department rang up the victims and asked for details of their PIN number.
A third theft occurred again this time at approximately 4 pm in the afternoon of Friday 18th where a male was disturbed in the office area of the Café Royal in Tannery Road.
Under no circumstances should you give your pin number to anyone
Other crimes have been reported over the same period of time, however in the interests and wishes of the victims and not to prejudice any investigations these will not be reported on.
Bridport Town Pact Panel meeting
Recently residents from across Bridport area attended the Partners and Communities Together (P.A.C.T) on Thursday June 26th and discussed community problems and voted on the priorities they wish to be tackled for the next 3 months. P.A.C.T panel members, made up of representatives from the councillors, social housing provider- Magna and police, will heard concerns from the community who attended and then voted on issues and the top 3 concerns at the last meeting in were;
• Cycling on the footpath
• Promote positive parenting
• Feasibility of a crossing point Sea Road South
The last point is working with other established organisations- who have been looking at the problem.
Any concerns you raise them and deemed a priority will be passed to relevant agency for their organisation deal and report on.

To have your say and raise any concerns you have about where you live, please come along to the next Bridport PACT meeting.
If you have any information regarding the above offences or any other crimes, then please come forward and help us with our enquiries: it may be your evidence, which successfully secures a conviction.
