BRENTFORD DOCK KIDDIES AND RESIDENTS LEFT UPSET AND ANGRY.
For the second year running, it won first prize in the Brentford Dock In Bloom Awards this summer. It was opened by Mayor Tony Louki and much admired by Ruth Cadbury MP and assorted local dignitaries.
Older people carrying shopping along Dock Road from Morrisons would stop off at the Children's Garden and rest in one of the two welcoming chairs, lean across the table and admire the lovely sunflowers and other plants nurtured by the local youngsters.
But now that very same furniture has been stolen by three men in a van. They picked it up and drove off with it back down Dock Road, turning right into the High Street and vanishing.
Here Tina Noel describes what happened and why everyone is so upset. The police have been informed – and CCTV has recorded the men and the van registration number.
