New CCTV camera for Orchard Meadow

As part of Spelthorne Borough Council’s continued drive to im-prove community safety, a new, modern CCTV camera has been installed at Orchard Meadow car park in Sunbury. 

The camera will be monitored 24/7 along with cameras in Staines-upon-Thames town centre and elsewhere in the Borough. 

The installation was arranged in response to concerns regarding anti-social behaviour in the area. The Council will continue to listen to residents’ concerns and, where necessary, take action to help combat anti-social behaviour. We are also taking feedback from our Community Safety consultation earlier this year in order to formulate a strategy for the future. 

Cllr Richard Barratt, Portfolio Holder for Community Safety, said: “We want to reassure residents that anti-social behaviour will not be tolerated in Spelthorne. We hope that installing this modern CCTV camera will act as a deterrent as footage will be used to identify any perpetrators. All of us have a responsibility to deal with anti-social behaviour and to help people who are suffering because it. If you have any concerns about anti-social behaviour, contact your community safety team or call the non-emergency number, 101.” 

If you wish to report fly tipping, graffiti, anti-social behaviour, noise pollution or dog fouling, please contact the Council direct via: https://www.spelthorne.gov.uk/article/16348/Report?p=1

If you have concerns about other forms of crime, please call police on 101. In an emergency, always dial 999.
