Moulton PCSO

Moulton shares a dedicated PCSO with neighbouring Davenham (which includes Kingsmead). Tom McDermott will increasingly be seen around and about the village. He intends to make contact with most of the local groups over the coming months. He can be contacted via the Winsford Police Community Action Team (tel 08454586391 or email ( winsford.cat@cheshire.pnn.police.uk) or just stop him in the street.

Tom's powers are quite comprehensive and are listed below. He is employed by Cheshire Constabulary and will work a shift pattern which includes evenings up to midnight as well as days. Together with the CAT (Community Action Team) police officers and other regular police officers this provides for a much greater coverage than we have previously experienced. Most importantly the tasks and priorities of the PCSO will be agreed by the Moulton and Davenham Community Safety Action Group (MADSAG) which works in cooperation with the Police.

MADSAG is comprised of Parish and Borough Councillors and other Community representatives. Davenham and Moulton Parish Councils each make a financial contribution to the cost of employing the PCSO with the balance being made up by the Cheshire Police Authority.

Richard has bases in Moulton, Davenham Village and Kingsmead. He has immediate access to all Police facilities and backup via the Police Radio system. You will see him moving around the area on a bike not a car. This means that he easily stop to talk to people as well as being mobile enough to respond to incidents quickly.

Contact with the PCSO can be made by e-mail to pcso@moultonpc.org.uk. In addition a number of 'postboxes' for people to supply written information will be provided.

If you wish to report an incident that is actually happening you should call the local Police Control Room on 01606 48000 or if it is serious by calling 999. Guidance on serious incidents is available here
