A case of ASB that was brought to the weekly Community Safety Hub has been resolved thanks to funds from the Community Safety Partnership.

Cannock Chase Council is delighted to announce there will be a new further education hub in Cannock town centre opening this September.

The Cannock Chase Skills and Innovation Hub, to be based at the same campus location owned by South Staffordshire College, is the result of the Council working with the College to create a new partnership venture.

The hub will ultimately deliver courses, training and apprenticeship opportunities across seven new disciplines.

Jaye Mountford aged 15 from Rugeley has been awarded Cannock Chase Council’s Youth Endeavour Award for 2018.

The Cannock Chase Community Safety Partnership is launching a purse charm initiative in the District, in a bid to aid safer communities.

Purse charms can alert you if someone is trying to steal your purse or wallet. This type of crime, called purse dipping, is most common in busy town centres, shops or public spaces.

These charms are a simple but effective personal security item and are suitable for people of all ages. They have previously helped to cut crime in other parts of the country like Leicester, Sheffield and Manchester.
