A rough and ready conversion HTML->PDF (using free CutePDF Writer ... hint, hint) attached which makes it a bit easier to read.


Also attached is the attachment mentioned in it, Empty Commercial Premises Advice. It was 709 kB when received. I've reprinted it and it came down to 157 kB. I trust it's otherwise unchanged.

Good afternoon


Please find below today?s Covid19 briefing note from BCU Commander C/Supt Colin Wingrove. Also attached are 3 documents; the first two relate to advice for business owners and the third is a letter around possible Covid19 scams.


This weekend will see extra officers on patrol across Southwark to engage with the public and enforce the lockdown where appropriate. We will be focusing on parks and open spaces as we?ve had a number of reports of anti-social behaviour and gatherings in these areas. We?re also working closely with the local authority to identify and close any businesses that should not be open.


Thank you for your continued support and be safe.

Good morning


Please find today?s briefing note from BCU Commander C/Supt Colin Wingrove. No briefing note was issued over the weekend.


We have had some messages about police officers being seen not to observe social distancing while on patrol. While police will try their best to observe this, the reality is that the way in which we deploy (in minibuses) and the calls to which we deploy (large groups causing issues; violent incidents) means this is not always possible. I have reminded local teams to observe this where able to but please do not be alarmed if you see groups of police officers together. We will always observe social distancing when talking to members of the public unless we are required to get closer (for example for a search or arrest).



Regards

Dear all, please accept my apologies ? the incorrect briefing note was circulated this morning. I?m also advised the formatting of the earlier email went wrong for some reason!



Please find today?s briefing note below.

Dear all,


Please find attached the most recent COVID19 briefing note from BCU Commander C/Supt Colin Wingrove. I was advised that the last one formatted so it was all underlined. I?ve tried to ensure that doesn?t happen this time ? apologies if it happens again.


Please note that going forward there may not be a briefing note every day. However when there are updates they will be compiled into a briefing note and sent out to you.



Kind regards


Owen

Good afternoon


Please find today?s briefing note from BCU Commander C/Supt Colin Wingrove.


This weekend we have extra deployments across the borough to ensure people comply with the lockdown. They will be paying particular attention to parks and open spaces to ensure no groups gather and people are only out for the essential purposes as directed by the government.


The Met now has an online reporting system for COVID lockdown breaches: https://www.met.police.uk/tua/tell-us-about/c19/tell-us-about-possible-breach-coronavirus-measures/. Please note that the government has not prohibited construction or building work continuing so we will not attend to deal with reports of this as we have no powers.


Lastly I am advised some of the messaging is still coming through underlined ? I don?t know why as it doesn?t show on my end but apparently some of you have received it in this format. I?ve attached a PDF copy which you can refer to if there are any formatting issues.

Police patrolling dulwich Park yesterday, I spoke to them about how they are applying the rules.


In Southwark, police are allowing ONE form of exercise in public places. So if you cycle to the park that's your exercise and you can't then kick a ball around (as I was doing with my son). The officer said this discourages larger gatherings or organised meetings of people who don't live together, as was happening on another football pitch.


The policeman was very polite but they are monitoring activity and will close the parks if people don't comply.

    • A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
