Good Afternoon 

Thames Valley Police have received a report of a male approaching properties along St Johns Road claiming to need access to gardens in order to check measurements of pipework in gardens to complete work in another property, this occurred on 30/10/24 at approximately 16:20.  The report states that this person was in a vehicle with 3 others, the vehicle was a black Porsche with ladders on the roof. 

Please be mindful and ensure you are sure about who you provide access to your property, there are many active scams and fraudulent behaviours in the area. If you are unsure, we would advice you do not allow access to anyone, even if they seem legitimate until you have confirmed who they are. 

Kind regards
