DS: Risk Warning; Stranger Danger

Hello all,

This refers to Yatton particularly where there have been a number of incidents, however, it is worth sharing more widely in case this individual is from, or appears elsewhere in the area. You may have a nugget of information that could help?

Investigation under way into sexual offences in Yatton

Added on 09 January 2018 at 11:56
An investigation is under way into four incidents of sexual assault and exposure in Yatton which are being treated as linked.
All the incidents have happened over the past two days and involve a man inappropriately touching females or exposing himself to members of the public.
We’re issuing a description of the offender and are appealing for information from the public.
The man we want to identify is white, in his late teens/early twenties, of slim or medium build and wearing jogging bottoms or dark jeans, a grey hooded top and possibly a black scarf or balaclava.
The investigation involves the following incidents:

*At about 9.20pm on Sunday (January 7), a man exposed himself to a woman in High Street.

*A 33-year-old woman was sexually assaulted after a man grabbed her in Stowey Road at about 6.15pm yesterday (January 8).

*A man inappropriately grabbed a 14-year-old girl in Henley Park at just after 7pm yesterday.

*At just after 7.30pm yesterday, a man exposed himself to a group of teenage girls in a park off Rectory Way.
DS Adam Knee, who is leading the investigation, said: “These incidents are clearly very concerning and we’re doing everything we can to identify the offender as soon as possible.
“We’re treating all four offences as linked due to their close proximity to each other and the similar descriptions given of the offender.
“Community reassurance patrols are being carried out in the local area and we have officers carrying out CCTV and house-to-house enquiries.
“We’ll be fully supporting all the victims and keeping them updated as this investigation progresses.
“If you have any information on who may be responsible or if you recognise the description we’ve issued, please call us.”
If you can help, please call 101 and give the call handler the reference number 5218005648

DS Risk Warning: Health - Coronavirus/Covid 19

Hello all, You may well have already heard or seen that as a result of the Government's meeting today on this issue they have moved to a different level of response to the virus and its progress namely DELAY. After reading the following and reflecting on it you may come to the conclusion a communication to all staff and another to parent/carers would be timely, as soon as possible, to try to stave off issues on site tomorrow morning. With immediate effect the advice is that anyone with a new persistent cough or high temperature should self-isolate for seven days. From Friday, school trips abroad will be banned. This should trigger the ability to claim from your insurers but there's no compensation for the disappointment and lost opportunity, of course. Older people and those with pre-existing health conditions are being told not to go on cruises. PM Boris Johnson said it was "the worst public health crisis for a generation".   He said there was no...

Delegated Services Risk Warning: Weather; Snow and Ice

Hello all, On the basis of the current forecast projection, coming to a conclusion on business as usual on Friday is very difficult to call. You'll see from the risk matrix below and description that things are moving in the higher impact direction for snow on the way home and overnight on Thursday, with things easing in the early hours and into the morning. However, there's still the caveat that a lot of it could be rain! If snow, the description may mean that it will be possible to have motorways and the majority of principal gritted routes open and, therefore, public transport running for the journey to work. My call at the moment is that it looks like an early curtain open and radio on for Friday morning to see what we face. It could vary markedly across the staff team's travel to work area. Make sure your communication cascade to all method is ready, up to date and has capacity if many have to use it. It may be a 'we are open' on a rolling basis will ...
