Did you go to the Council offices at Chicksands tonight? Part-ay! Well, nearly.
It was a Central Bedfordshire 'Keeping our communities safe' initiative, open to all from 6pm to 9pm with stalls laid out by the police, NHS, Fire Authority, etc, etc.
Most useful contact: CAN Community Drug workers and their 'space d' programme to offer support and info to family and friends concerned about someone's drug or alcohol use: Linda 07817 313 446 or Gary 07950 301 426
Most timely leaflet: Crown Prosecution Service flyer on 'Householders and the use of force against intruders'
Most cool dudes: the two NHS guys, expert on flu, swine or otherwise
Most helpful helper: police informer Andrew Lane
Most welcoming, smiley face: Sherry Pugh, a local lass working the Pay Back stand, a reassuring initiative that recovers assets from criminals to feed back into local communities.
Sincere thanks to Sharon Glenister at the Barton-le-Clay Perfect Pets pet shop for kindly agreeing to put a large poster up advertising the event in her shop window. Thanks also to the Chemist Shop for offering if only I'd had A5 size ones (fair enough - I'll tell the Council). Not so great from the Co-op, who don't usually put up posters, apparently:-(
