In September 2011, Other Crime was divided into 6 categories - Drugs, Public Disorder & Weapons (which was later split further and so is not displayed here), Criminal Damage & Arson (CD&A), Theft - Shoplifting, Theft-Other and Other.
From May 2013, the following changes were made to the crime categories:
I) The violent crime category was renamed "violence and sexual offences"
2) A new category for "bicycle theft" was created which previously fell within "other theft"
3) A new category for "theft from the person" was created which previously fell within "other theft"
4) Public disorder and weapons were then split into two new categories; "public order" and "possession of weapons"
5) Both "other firearms offences" and "other knives offences" which were in "other crime" were moved into "possession of weapons".
The Economic Policy Centre www.economicpolicycentre.com has made every effort in order to ensure that the data for UkCrimeStats is accurate and up to date. However, we are aware of certain deficiencies in this data which are beyond our control. That's because as a 3rd party developer, we do not collect the data, the Police do who then hand it over to another data company to release to 3rd party developers such as ourselves. We only download and analyse it so that you can use it. For full detail of these deficiencies, please read here.
Battins and Bonfields sector is situated in the middle and is at the heart of Leigh Park with West Leigh to one side and Warren Park to the other.
It has a mixture of residential, retail and greenland within its borders, and is also host to the scenic Staunton Country Park. There are educational premises within the sector, which are the key to developing the understanding of young minds in the way the world functions.
There are signs of investment and regeneration creeping in around the Greywell shopping area, there is a new and improved library service and new accommodation is being built which is changing the landscape and hopefully a sign of things to come.
Many of the homes within the sector have become privately owned over the years, but local housing associations still play a major role in supporting local residents tenancies. As the public gain in confidence in our efforts more and more neighbourhood watch schemes are being developed which indicates that community cohesion is there waiting to be unlocked.
