Lancashire Police have launched their new Community Portal for CCTV!
What’s that we hear you ask? Well, it’s a system where you can sign up your CCTV cameras, whether they’re from your business or personal residence, and it allows you to easily send in footage (including large data files in a wide variety of formats) if a crime or incident has taken place.
This is entirely FREE and completely voluntary, so we would like to assure you that by registering with the portal you are NOT giving Lancashire Constabulary access to your CCTV system or any cameras – you are simply making it easier for us to request and collect footage which may really help us in an investigation!
If you’d like to register your camera, just pop an e-mail to NICE.Register@lancashire.police.uk with your name and contact details to get started – you will then get a registration link sent to you from the system.
Thank you for your help and support!
Lancashire County Council are reviewing walking and cycle paths to help make improvements to help make Lancashire a place where cycling and walking is easily accessible, safe to use, attractive and well maintained. By building an infrastructure that makes it easier for people to travel on foot or by cycle, we can make walking and cycling a practical choice as well as a healthy and sustainable one.
Lancashire County Council is working in partnership with Blackpool Council to develop Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans, for our future cycling and walking networks for each area of the county.
Have your say in the survey on their website!
George lane will be subject to temporary road closure on the 19/04/22 until 25/04/22 to enable Electrical Cable works to take place. Further details can be found here.

For further information or to make an offer please email the clerk (April) on readparishcouncilclerk@gmail.com or contact one of your local Councillors.
