PC Burn was recently made aware of some damage to a badger sett in the Brighouse area. Some kids had made quite an impressive den, deep in woodland and were probably unaware they were right next to an active badger sett. We love the fact the kids are making these dens and would encourage them to keep doing it in the right location.

In this instance, words of advice were issued and posters put up to remind those that may reattend, the badgers are protected and action can be taken against those actively interfering with an active sett.

Please monitor any badger setts you may be aware of an report any suspicious activity you may see via 101 or online, or in an emergency call 999.

Another badger sett has been damaged in the Calderdale area, between Northowram and Shelf, sometime within the last two weeks. Again it is believed that those responsible have been searching for antique bottles, this is the second incident this year within the Calderdale area. If you have any information please contact PC 3168 Hamilton at Todmorden Police Station quoting reference number 13/22/0119036.

Unfortunately here in Calderdale we have seen a slight increase in burglaries and attempted burglaries within some of our rural communities. Most recently in the Barkisland, Soyland and Hebden Bridge areas. It would appear that outbuildings have been targeted and, in some offences, quad bikes have been stolen.

Please make sure you have done all you can to secure your buildings and vehicles and report any suspicious activity to us on 101 or 999 in an emergency. Alternatively report online via the West Yorkshire Police website.

If you would like a free Crime Prevention Security Survey of your property from our Crime Prevention Officers please email [email protected] and this can be arranged.
