Nuisance Beggars.
Wednesfield Policing team are again aware of nuisance / persistent beggars in the area..
We are continuing to monitor and deal with this by handing out Community Protection Warning Notices and Community Protection Notices.

Our advice to the public is as follows:

Giving money to those who beg could be making their situation worse.
You could be feeding their addiction, causing them to be robbed or even worse.
There are other ways you can help!..
