Message from Willow Road Films Limited
We would like to notify you about some filming we will be doing in your area in a few weeks. Willow Road Films Ltd. are currently in production of a new feature film entitled ‘ONE LIFE’ which is
shooting around London in September 2022.
We are scheduled to film on Pinner High Sheet on Friday 16* September. Our film is period specific, so we will be doing some Art Department dressing on the facades of a selection of shops
along the High Street.
Dear Watch Member,
Action Fraud is warning the public about a sharp rise in reports of fake emails purporting to be from Ofgem, the independent energy regulator for Great Britain. The emails claim that the recipient is due a rebate payment as part of a government scheme and provides links for the recipient to follow in order to apply for the rebate. The links in the emails lead to malicious websites designed to steal personal and financial information.
Between Monday 22nd August 2022 and Monday 5th September 2022, a total of 1,567 phishing emails related to this scam were reported via the Suspicious Email Reporting Service (SERS). They all displayed the email subject header “Claim your bill rebate now”. Offenders are using the Ofgem brand logo and colours to make their emails look as authentic as possible. However, the emails asked recipients to “apply for an energy bill rebate before September 2020”, which prompted many recipients to realise the emails weren’t genuine.
Protect yourself and others:
If you have doubts about a message, contact the organisation directly. Don’t use the numbers or address in the message – use the contact details from their official website. Remember, your bank (or any other official source) will never ask you to supply personal information via email.
If you receive an email you’re not quite sure about, forward it to [email protected]. Even if you’re not certain it’s a scam – they can check.

Dear Watch Member,
Many of you will have children or grandchildren returning to school this week, some of whom may be starting secondary school and using public transport to commute there and back.
Unfortunately, the start of a new school term can see an increase in robbery offences. There are, however, some things you can do to help reduce school-age family members’ risk of becoming a robbery victim and keep safe whilst using their phone. If you can, talk to them about where and how they use their phone using the following advice:
Safety when out and about:

Dear Watch Member,
Illicit drugs are at the root of untold harm and misery across our society. More people die every year as a result of drug misuse in England and Wales than from all knife crime and road traffic accidents combined. Drugs also cause enormous harm to children and young people, impacting on their health and their ability to work and learn. The total cost to society and taxpayers in today’s prices is running close to £22 billion a year in England alone.
Even these shocking numbers cannot fully capture the scale of the human tragedy, with countless lives ruined and families devastated.
A new government white paper is proposing a new regime for how the criminal justice system deals with drug possession offences by so-called recreational or casual users, and changes to how drug testing on arrest works.
The government’s consultation on the proposals is open until 10th October, and the Home Office policy team have told us they are keen to get a wide range of responses. You are invited to find out about the proposals and give your views via the below online links.
The paper can be found at: ‘Swift, Certain, Tough: New Consequences for Drug Possession’ white paper – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
Please use the above links if you want to respond to this survey.
