MUCH has been reported about the "youth troubles" in the Woodhill area. Although the problems have not been totally resolved, things do appear to be somewhat calmer.

As a resident and member of the community action group, I have attended all three of the action plan meetings and would congratulate all the agencies and residents who have co-operated to achieve what we have so far.

There is obviously a need to carry on the work to try and prevent any recurrence, and the commitment of more residents is badly needed. Therefore I hope that residents will seriously consider responding to further calls for help from the action group.
