There is a traveller encampment at Aberford Park in Borehamwood An injunction which allowed council officers to move on travellers without having to go through the courts is no longer in place. Hertsmere Borough Council introduced the instant ban at more than 100 public sites in 2019, after dealing with several encampments the year before. The injunction has meant the council has avoided having to go through the lengthy and often costly process of moving travellers on from parks and other open spaces in Bushey and Radlett, via the courts. However the council says this injunction is not currently in force after legal action was brought against it.
A collection of knives previously handed into Hertfordshire Constabulary during an amnesty A police force has announced its officers will carry out a week of action to combat knife crime as part of a national knife crime initiative Hertfordshire Constabulary says knife related crime in Hertfordshire remains lower than in other parts of the country, but the campaign aims to reinforce the message that carrying a knife is illegal and will not help to keep a person safe. Between Monday April 26 and Sunday May 2, officers will join others around England and take part in Operation Spectre. The operation will involve a range of activities aimed at reducing knife crime, including conducting knife sweeps and talking to retailers about making sure knives sales are age checked, as well as educating young people about the dangers of carrying a knife.
