Last week on Thursday 25 August Brendan Clarke-Smith, MP for Bassetlaw alongside Worksop North county councillor Callum Bailey hosted a meeting at Cleveland Community Centre to discuss anti-social behaviour in Carlton-in-Lindrick.
Also attending were officers from Bassetlaw District Council as well as the Police Inspector Hayley Crawford, district commander for Bassetlaw.
During the meeting, anti-social behaviour, policing numbers and concerns regarding recent off-road motorbikes in Carlton-in-Lindrick were raised.
Brendan Clarke-Smith MP said: “I would like to thank everyone who attended last week’s meeting to discuss anti-social behaviour, including Inspector Crawford and Bassetlaw District Council officers. There is a significant concern, and more work needs to be done.
“If anybody has any issue to report, please contact the police on 101, or in an emergency contact 999. If you wish to report a crime anonymously, you can phone Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
“For anti-social behaviour, please contact Bassetlaw District Council on 01909 533533.
“If issues are not reported, then the police and council will not be able to assign the correct resources to the areas that need them. So please do report any incidents. I also have an anti-social behaviour booklet which you can contact my office on 01909 738 956 which has lots of information about who to contact and what to contact each organisation about.”
Councillor Callum Bailey said: “As a resident of Carlton-in-Lindrick I was pleased to speak on behalf of others in the village when I shared my concerns with the police and Council regarding this issue.
“There are pots of money on offer that allows councils to make bids for future infrastructure projects like streetlighting and I am hopeful that in areas like Carlton-in-Lindrick, the council take steps to make those bids and to ensure we have our fair share.”
