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.
Polsloe and Heavitree wards encompass a large area from Polsloe Rd to East Wonford Hill and from the RD&E Hospital to Prince Charles Rd. The two wards are quite different in their make up. Both have schools and licensed premises of varying types. Polsloe has a population over 6000 which is mainly residential with a high volume of multi occupancy accommodation Heavitree however has an older established community of over 5000 and has its heart around the shops and Heavitree Pleasure Park. Both these areas share similar problems and are being subjected to vandalism especially to parked cars and anti social behaviour involving youths and alcohol which I know the residents don't want.
To try and tackle these problems we intend to make ourselves as highly visible as possible to try and improve the situation and make both communities a better place. I'm also looking forward to meeting many of the business owners and leaders of the various groups that are run within these two communities. Finally I am looking forward to the challenges, responsibilities and problems that my areas present and hope that we can all work together for better and safer communities.
