Shoppers in the Derbyshire Dales can get their hands on free purse chains to help keep them safe during the run up to Christmas.
The police and Derbyshire Dales District Council have joined forces to provide the chains as part of a bid to prevent purse thefts in Bakewell, Ashbourne and Matlock.
They can be used to attach the purse to a zip inside a handbag, to make it more difficult for the purse to be stolen and increase the chances of alerting the shopper, who might feel the purse being ‘tugged’. It can be easy to become distracted while you are out and about browsing the shops but we would always urge people to make sure that they keep their handbags zipped up and their purse out of sight.
In Ashbourne people can get hold of the chains by calling at the Ashbourne News Telegraph office on Market Place or from Ashbourne police station, Compton Road.
Today details of the route of the Olympic Torch have been released. The torch will pass quite close to Parwich, the day before Wakes Saturday, on Friday 29th June. The exact detail is still unknown, but on that day, the 800g torch will have gone up the Heights of Abraham at Matlock, through Darley Dale, Bakewell, Buxton, Ashbourne and then will stay overnight in Derby. On the Friday evening there will be events to celebrate its arrival in the city.
Residents in Ashbourne and the surrounding villages are being advised to make sure they use grit fairly and sensibly during the winter months. It is after reports that during the cold spell last year, some residents had taken grit from roadside bins for use on their own driveways.
PCSO Kate Cleveley of the Tissington Area Safer Neighbourhood Policing Team said: “It was disappointing to hear that last year a few individuals took grit that is provided to keep road users and pedestrians safe on the highways, and used it on their own personal property.
“Grit bins are provided by the council in various locations, usually in villages or on untreated roads, so that residents and businesses can keep roads or pavements free from snow and ice.
“These grit bins must be used to clear public pavements and roads only and are not for use on private property.”
Police have advised that taking grit from the public bins for use on private property can be classed as theft.
PCSO Cleveley added: “Not only would you risk prosecution if you are found to be taking grit from public bins for domestic use, but you could also be putting other people’s safety at risk. Homeowners have a responsibility to buy their own supplies of salt to keep their driveways or pathways clear. Please use public salt supplies responsibly.”
You can report problems with grit bins to Derbyshire County Council on 08456 058 058.

It was a super Bonfire Night last night, and the fireworks went on for ages – a fabulous event. Thank you to the Carnival & Rec committee for organising it, to C4P for the food and anyone else that helped.
This guy looked as bit lost as he was seen staggering down Creamery Lane about 30 minutes ago.
If you see him, do help him, as he’s going to be the star tonight. Give your vote and support to “Guy in Lights”, better than X Factor & Strictly, from 7.30pm, Live on Alsop Road. It’s Bonfire Night!
No sooner am I back in Dorset than I’m jumping in the sea with D. Studland, with borrowed kit (thanks Matt), a BCD from the dive centre, and away we go. The beach is packed! I’ve never seen it like this before. The number of boats moored have increased, too. We make our way to the water and don fins. It’s good to be back!
CHAIRMANS REPORT 2011
The last year has been yet another good one for the Horticultural Society. It has been difficult deciding in what direction to steer the Society but I feel we have weathered the last 2 years and are being as well supported by our members as we were in the past.
Entries were higher this year in the childrens show and there were some fabulous animals produced from fruit and vegetables. The main show was as unpredictable as ever and entries were affected by a wet summer and by many of us being at the Strong Man event the day before. However the auction was as popular as ever as the crowd were encouraged by the auctioneer, Mr Robert Bunting, to part with vast sums of money for superb produce.
Open Gardens was another great success and as usual the village rallied round to help us with the organisation. As a Thank-You to our Garden Openers we held a buffet reception on the Sunday evening and it was lovely to see everyone there. Continue Reading »
