LOCAL NEWS AND NEXT MEETING ON TUESDAY 21 JANUARY

Some of you came to our Big Green Lunch last June at Furness School. You may remember that we did some community art and were very proud of ourselves when we saw the end product. That panel was just 1 of 25 that were painted by various community groups. Well, now is the time to see the whole picture. The 25 panels together are being shown in the Brent Civic Centre. The inauguration was on Wednesday 27 November but you can view the work at Brent Civic Centre any time until 2 February.

On a different note, you may also have seen some developments in Furness Rd Pocket Park. We are going to have new plants and spring bulbs. We are also planning to make a community mosaic on one of the end walls. We hope you will be part of this activity which is going to take place on Saturday 25 January from 10.30 to 3.30pm in St Marks Church. We will let you know the details later but for now put this date on your diary.

Our next Odessa Palermo Neighbourhood Watch meeting will be on Tuesday 21 January now that we have had confirmation from Councillor  Claudia and the Safer Neighbourhood Team.

Top Tips for a Safe Christmas

Keep presents & valuables out of sight, away from windows and doors. Close your curtains when it gets dark so burglars can’t see in.
Lock all windows and doors when you go out.
Make your home look occupied whilst you are out, leave some lights & a radio on or invest in timer switches, which can turn lights & radios on. Remember to turn off festive lights when unattended to avoid a fire.
When carrying bags make sure they are fastened securely – if you are a wheelchair user keep bags in front of you where you can see them.
Do not carry or withdraw large amounts of cash whilst shopping or socialising.
Do not flash your valuables – mobiles & purses – Keep them out of sight & secure in your bag or pocket.
When using public transport make that call or text before you leave the train station where it is well lit, staffed and safe, then put your mobile away.
Don’t leave bags of presents or shopping on display in your car – always use the boot & make sure you take valuables including your car stereo, SATNAV & holder with you when leaving your car.
Consider leaving your glove box open to show there is nothing in the car to break in for & always wipe away the circular ring left by the SATNAV suction pads.
Enjoy the festivities but be aware of your surroundings & plan how you will get home safely – arrange to travel home with friends & only use minicabs that are licensed. Text HOME to 60835.
When travelling don’t take risks or short cuts, stick to well lit main routes & let someone know where you are going.
