Park Life at Valley Gardens
Residents of Valley Gardens Kingsway, have been overrun by troublesome teens in the local childrens park/play area where groups of youths have apparently been drinking, vandalising and indulging in other anti-social behaviour over the last few months.
The police have been called out so many times to deal with problems that they invited local residents and youths to meet with them at the park to discuss the problem.
Many people heard rumours that the park might actually be closed but the Quedgeley parish council have dealt with many similar problems and a representative of QUVL said that option would not be considered unless all other possible solutions had been exhausted.
The meeting discussed a range of options including regular patrols and security cameras and it was agreed that they would increase general police presence in the area for the forseeable future.
