Welcome to Kingsway and Lincoln Gardens

Several female youths from the Kingsway & Lincoln Gardens Ward recently attended a ‘Respect Seminar’ in relation to offences they have committed. The seminars which involve time in the Police cells and an appearance at the Magistrates Court in company with their parents or guardians to explain their actions. The seminars are an alternative method of dealing with low level offences and focus on education and encourage young first time offenders to take responsibility, reflect on their actions and future behaviour. Acceptable Behaviour Contracts (ABC’s) are also signed by offenders with their parents. So far the seminars have proved very successful.

Parking around the local schools continues to be raised as an issue of local concern. The Kingsway & Lincoln Gardens Team continue to patrol these areas offer advice and issues tickets when applicable. As well as parking officers have recently issued nuisance motor bike riders with section 59 warnings. This gives police officers the power to seize motor vehicles being used in an anti social manner.

3 local youths from the Kingsway & Lincoln Gardens Ward have recently been arrested and prosecuted for their part in an affray on the Ward. Local officers progressed the case as a public order incident even though no complaints of assault were forthcoming.
