NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH
Lamp-post mounted signs have been placed along the entire length of the lane.
These have been proven to reduce crime in areas that exhibit them,
but in order to be truly effective, it is down to us, the community, to do two things:

If you see ANYTHING suspicious;
call the Police on the non-emergency number straight away on 101
that's ONE ZERO ONE

and KNOW YOUR NEIGHBOURS.
By looking out for each other and our properties,
we can help to put criminals and thieves out of business.

We have a well established and active Neighbourhood Watch operating on Monkey Island Lane. ​Together we can make our neighbourhood an even safer, securer place for residents and businesses.

KNOW YOUR NEIGHBOUR!
​
We can improve security in our neighbourhood simply by
knowing who our neighbours are, looking out for each other,
and reporting and sharing suspicious behaviours and anti-social activities,
​between ourselves and the Police - quickly.

JOIN THE COMMUNITY ALERT SCHEME

By knowing what's going on in our area at any time,
we can maintain the appropriate vigilance, and assist in
successfully deterring and/or prosecuting criminal behaviour.

The neighbourhood policing team should be contacted
via the new 24-hour Police Enquiry Centre:

JUST DIAL 101
ONE ZERO ONE
​
Alternatively, email the neighbourhood team at
Oldfield&[email protected]
​

Remember that in an EMERGENCY
you should still dial 999

​by MABEL COPPINS (1921-2013)

Mabel Coppins was born and educated in the Berkshire village of Holyport,
she wrote Beyond the Village Green in the early 80’s and the first edition was published in 1983.
It was reprinted twice.  The third edition includes photographs of the places Mabel talks about.
Beyond the Village Green is the story of a life in a Berkshire village at peace and at war.
Listen to the full audiobook here...

POSTSCRIPT
Sadly, Mabel passed away in March of 2013
We are grateful for the book that she left for future generations to learn from and enjoy,
​as well as the many lives she touched in her 92 years.
