Rempstone CCTV Upgrade

Rempstone’s CCTV system is a major factor in keeping the village free of the levels of crime and antisocial behaviour experienced in our neighbouring villages. It has been

instrumental in resolving several incidents every year. So far in 2024 we have provided evidence to the Police of two vehicles involved in thefts in the village.

CCTV was installed 12 years ago as part of the Village Hall construction. It covers access to the building, central Main Street, and the Wysall Lane junction. Although still working

satisfactorily it is prudent to replace the CCTV before it starts to fail. Newer cameras will provide better images. Upgrading will also provide facilities which reduce the time and effort required to investigate incidents. The upgrade cost will be around £10,000, shared between the Village Hall and the Parish Council. Some of the cost will hopefully be met by

grants and matched funding.

The Parish Council is looking to raise £4,500 by donations from those residents who are willing and able to contribute. £2,600 has already been pledged.
