Standish Independents get rid of Travellers quickly

Thanks to the quick response from Standish Independents for quickly getting rid of the Travellers. As they were setting up camp a resident called Cllr Debbie Fairhurst and informed her of what was going on. She immediately contacted the Council and informed them, only to be told that it is private property and there was nothing they could do but inform the police. Cllr Debbie also informed the owners of the situation and they were straight on to it.

During the matter the company liaised with the Standish Independents Cllrs to keep them informed of what was going on and when. Elle R Leisure got security teams in the premises with patrols with dogs. They got straight on to Bailiffs who was trying to get there on Thursday but they couldn't make it.

However, they turned up on Saturday and evicted them. Thankfully their concerns was their property and site and Elle R Leisure moved quickly. Funny how when the travellers come on to public land they cannot get rid of them that fast.

The Standish Independents Cllrs are thankful for a business that moved fast to protect their site and the community. However we dis have a number of thefts in Standish during the week, a car, a caravan and other things.
