@ecops – The story of the yellow wristband
| Do you know someone with dementia or Alzheimer’s? A smart wristband will be issued to hundreds of the most vulnerable members of our community as part of a new project.Dementia Action Week ran by the Alzheimer’s Society takes place this week and to coincide with that, we’re sharing news of our new Dementia Safeguarding Scheme. The scheme will see members of the community in Cambridgeshire who live with dementia offered a yellow wristband, similar to a watch in appearance.  The wristband contains their next of kin’s contact name and number, allowing the person to retain their freedom and independence but also giving them an extra measure of safety if they forget where they are or how to get home. Detective Chief Inspector Dave Savill, of the force’s Protecting Vulnerable People unit, said: “This new technology is one more important step to ensure we do everything possible to protect vulnerable people in Cambridgeshire.“It is crucial that people living with dementia can get to a place of safety and security, with friends or family, as quickly as possible. These wristbands will help to achieve that and reduce the demand on emergency services.”  We’re also highlighting the Herbert Protocol, a scheme we support that can help find people with dementia if they go missing. It encourages family and friends to keep a document that will help officers in the event a loved one goes missing by collating key pieces of information, such as a physical description, familiar places, health details and an up-to-date photo. To read more about the new scheme, and to complete our new Herbert Protocol form for a family member or loved one and register your interest in a dementia wristband, see our website. Kind regards, |

E-Cops Bulletin
| Do you or the people you love know the true consequences of knife crime? These can include: · A four-year prison sentence just for carrying a weapon · A permanent criminal record, which you have to declare for the rest of your life (for example when applying for jobs or going on holiday) · If you carry a knife for protection, you’re more likely to have it used against you Our weapons amnesty takes place this week, but we speak to young people at schools about the dangers of knife crime all year round. However, we can’t do it alone. Having a conversation with the children or teenagers in your life about knife crime could make all the difference. There have been some heart-breaking cases in Cambridgeshire in recent years where young men have lost their lives because of a drugs dispute or because their attacker decided to carry a weapon. For more info about this week’s knife amnesty, how you can hand in knives and other weapons, and knife crime in general, please see this latest news story our website. |
E-Cops bulletin
| We’re issuing a warning ahead of the bank holiday weekend after a spike in burglaries last year. There were more burglaries on the week of the late May bank holiday than at any other time in 2024. Although some homes were broken into, many thieves acted as opportunists, stealing items when windows were left open or doors unlocked. We’re asking residents to remain extra vigilant and ensure their property is secure at all times. For more information and crime prevention advice visit our website. |

E-Cops – weapons amnesty
| A new way to dispose of knives and other items without prosecution by us is being piloted in some areas of the county as a weapons amnesty takes place next week. As well as knives, people can surrender items such as knuckledusters, extendable batons, curved swords and zombie weapons that have been made illegal to own. The amnesty will not cover guns. The week-long initiative starts on Monday (19 May) with amnesty bins at Thorpe Wood Police Station in Peterborough and Parkside Police Station in Cambridge throughout. An amnesty bin will also be available at Cambourne Police Station between 2pm and 6pm on Thursday (22 May) and at Sawston Police Station between 10am and 2pm on the same date. This year people who want to dispose of knives or weapons, but who may struggle to get to an amnesty bin next week, can now arrange for officers to visit their home and collect them. The idea is being piloted in some areas of Cambridgeshire including Peterborough, Fenland and East Cambridgeshire. Anyone interested in doing so is asked to email NorthKnifeAmnesty@cambs.police.uk (for areas in Peterborough and Fenland) and OpSceptreEastCambs@cambs.police.uk for areas in East Cambs. The email should contain their address and contact details. They will then be contacted by an officer who will arrange collection. These mailboxes will only be active until the end of the amnesty on Sunday, 25 May. Alongside this, officers will be visiting schools across the county, carrying out extra patrols in “hotspot” areas and targeting those believed to be carrying knives. The week will be supported by officers, Specials and police cadets. The previous amnesty held in November saw 370 items handed in – a record number for Cambridgeshire. In the past year, possession of weapons offences in Cambridgeshire increased by 31 per cent. ‘You will be safer in reality’ Superintendent Paul Rogerson said: “Regular amnesties continue to be part of our ongoing work to combat knife crime in the county and I am pleased we have a new option available to people this year. “Although our statistics show possession of weapon offences have increased, this doesn’t necessarily mean knife crime has done the same. The rise could be due to any number of reasons, for example more pro-active work by officers to tackle the issue, more stop searches, or others having more confidence to report those who carry weapons to us. “For example in that same timeframe, 215 extra stop searches were carried out in hot spot areas and 160 more knives were seized during those searches. “It’s important we continue our other work in this area, such as speaking to young people at schools about the dangers of knife crime. “Very few people carry knives in our county. However, if you suspect a friend or family member does, please speak to them about the amnesty and encourage them to do the right thing. By disposing of any weapons, they will be safer in reality, and this also removes the risk of them being prosecuted.” The national Sceptre initiative is also part of Operation Guardian – the Constabulary’s ongoing strategy to combat knife crime in the county. What is the law? Where knives are concerned, it is illegal to: – sell a knife of any kind to anyone under 18 years old – carry a knife in public without good reason – unless it’s a knife with a folding blade 3 inches long (7.62 cm) or less, eg a Swiss Army knife – carry, buy or sell any type of banned knife – use any knife in a threatening way (even a legal knife, such as a Swiss Army knife) The maximum penalty for an adult carrying a knife is four years in prison and a fine of £5,000. Police and Crime Commissioner Darryl Preston said: “I encourage anyone who has a knife, or knows someone else who has one, to hand these into one of the amnesty bins available. “Knife crime has a devastating impact on the lives of victims, their families and the wider community. “While we do not see the same levels of violence as other parts of the country, it is essential we all play our part in educating our young people as to the dangers of carrying knives.” Visit Cambridgeshire Constabulary’s website for more information on knife crime and to access a list of the banned items. |
E-Cops Bulletin
| A topping out ceremony has been held to mark the highest point of the build of Milton Police Station. Officers and staff from Cambridgeshire Constabulary were joined by the Police and Crime Commissioner Darryl Preston, alongside contractors Willmott Dixon at the site of the new station on Friday (9 May). Mr Preston and Chief Constable Nick Dean signed the final piece of internal parapet cement board to the main roof to celebrate completion of the main construction phase. The steel framework is in place and exterior walls are going up in the custody suite, giving a clear view of the building’s final footprint. |
Have you seen a Turtle Dove?
Spring is here and many migrant birds have already arrived from their African wintering grounds including the first Swallows and Nightingales. Turtle Doves – previously one of the fastest declining breeding birds in the UK – have been arriving in Cambridgeshire for the last few weeks.
We work with many farmers, landowners, and other groups across Cambridgeshire (and a small area of Bedfordshire near to our RSPB The Lodge reserve) providing advice and support to improve conditions for this beautiful bird. They nest in thick scrub or wide / tall hedgerows, feed on the ground for seeds and regularly frequent ponds or other water bodies to drink. We are always keen to know of any areas where Turtle Doves may occur.
It’s so important to work in partnership to support the recovery of this iconic breeding bird. We hope that with your support we will get a better understanding of our Cambridgeshire Turtle Dove population and encourage a wider network of landowners / land managers to get involved in maintaining and / or creating suitable habitat and volunteers interested in supporting us with surveys or habitat creation.

Parent Webinars – County lines and criminal exploitation – Ivison Trust
The Ivison Trust (formerly known as Parents Against Child Exploitation (PACE)) are holding two evening seminars specifically for parents and carers in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough on County Lines and Criminal Exploitation. These seminars will be delivered with a parent whose child has been a victim of exploitation, sharing their experiences and advice on responding to risks.
The sessions will share what criminal exploitation is, with a focus on county lines and explore how to spot signs that it may be happening to your child or a child you know. They will also cover trends in the local area and where to get advice and support if you are concerned.
The seminars are being held on:
Cambridgeshire: 17th June 2025 7:00pm – 8:30pm
Peterborough: 18th June 2025 7:00 – 8:30pm
I would be grateful if you could share this information within your community – places can be booked via the Ivison Trust website Parent webinars – county lines and criminal exploitation – Ivison Trust.
