CCTV operated by Cheshire East Council and funded by Alderley Edge Parish Council has played a key role in assisting police following a spate of burglaries in Alderley Edge & Wilmslow. Working out of our CCTV Control Room at Macclesfield, camera operators received reports of a burglary at West Bank, Alderley Edge; by scanning the adjacent area, they were able to track the offenders going back to their vehicle and hence, pass on the images and details to the police.
Stuart Hobson, CCTV Control Room Manager at Cheshire East Council said "our CCTV footage has now been placed on Facebook by the police and shows that without us locating them, the police would have had nothing to go on. Although we are regularly involved in these kinds of operation, it is not often that it makes the headlines; however, I like to think that this shows the vital work the CCTV Service carry out 24 hours per day to help people feel safer across our borough."
