On a lighter note

12/09/2025

ALWAYS BE VIGILANT!!

Police in Strabane are keen to urge business owners to be vigilant when handling cash. This follows several incidents in recent days of counterfeit £20 notes circulating.

A police spokesperson said: “There are a number of things shop owners and employees can look out for, including, does the main printing feel raised, can you see a bold and clear watermark when the note is held up to the light, is the print clear, sharp and well defined?

"Some other things to look out for include checking if the colours are clear and distinct. Comparing a suspect note against a note which is known to be genuine is also a good way to check. Counterfeit notes are damaging for local businesses so please report any incidents to us straightaway."

Anyone with any concerns regarding counterfeit notes is urged to call 101. A report can also be made using the online reporting form. Alternatively, information can be provided to Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or online.

There are also a number of steps which can be taken to raise awareness among customers and also to deter criminals.

- Display clear warning signs stating: 'COUNTERFEIT CURRENCY CHECKS WILL BE CARRIED OUT'

- Ensure store staff are aware of how to examine notes.

- Have a policy for staff to follow on discovery of a counterfeit note. This should include the retention of the note and contacting the police, with a description of the person passing the suspect banknote.

- Ensure there are good lighting conditions at cash points.

Shared on behalf of our local band -
Has your son, daughter, grandson or granddaughter ever mimicked playing the flute, beating a drum, or carrying a flag while watching a parade? Now they can do it for real!

The festival week kicks off on Monday 4th August here in Irish Street, and we’re excited to be working alongside the Community Centre and Irish Street Culture and Awareness to bring a special opportunity to local young people.

We’ll have a selection of instruments available to try — flutes, drums, and more — along with uniforms, hats, belts, and all the gear. Kids can dress up and get a real feel for what it’s like to be in a marching band. Who knows — by the end of the week, we might have the beginnings of a Junior East Bank Protestant Boys and Girls Flute Band!

Light refreshments will be provided, and everyone who comes along is warmly invited to join us on parade next Friday evening as we parade around the estate.

For more information, get in touch with the Community Centre or contact me directly. We’d love to see you there!
