On Tuesday 26th May, Chapel and Whaley Safer Neighbourhood Teams attended the Derbyshire Constabulary Annual Achievement Awards Ceremony, as one of the 6 teams nominated for Safer Neighbourhood Team of the year.

They narrowly missed out with a team from Derby winning the trophy.

The Teams would like to thank all those people who nominated them for the Award and hope that with your support they could be nominated again next year and maybe even win.

Shoppers are asked to ensure that their purses and wallets are secure whilst out shopping, following several reports of purse thefts from handbags over the past few days.

These thefts are believed to have taken place at supermarkets in Buxton and Chapel-en-le-Frith.

Please be extra vigilant and ensure that handbags are closed whilst browsing so that the opportunist thief cannot
take your purse.

Thank you.
