We’d like to give a shout-out to all of our Special Constables who are volunteering their time with us during Covid19.👐
Thank you to all for your hard work and dedication to the force.👮

You cannot even begin to imagine the stress, heartbreak, sheer emotional and physical exhaustion of working on the frontline. Please, please stay at home. Reduce the spread of this awful disease #StayHomeSaveLives #Covid_19
All our Foodbank centres will be open this week apart from on Good Friday when we will be closed. Home deliveries are also available but must be requested by the Referral Agency issuing the voucher.
@wrexham I don’t think lighting fires and sitting in the sun by the river in erddig is essential is it! 🤦♀️😑
@wrexham, massive shout out to Stephen Harrison from Brynteg, he's been singing live on Facebook since 3.30pm all donations to Panto ward, wrexham ,maelor . (LINK)
A rare address by the Head of State and commander-in-chief of the armed forces coming up in a minute, will be on main TV channels / online streams. This will be the 5th such speech given by the current Queen.
Two Wrexham Pigeons 🕊️ practising social distancing 😉 before bed 😃 Goodnight @wrexham @ruthwignall
Patrols on A5 at Chirk today. Vehicles checked to ensure only essential travel - coming from “Norfolk to exchange a motorbike” - “Shropshire to pick a table up from Mum” - “Birkenhead to pick up a bed” is not essential. All advised to return home, which they did. #StaySafe
Overnight fly tipping appeared Hafod Road, Ruabon Road side - very disappointing @wrexhamcbc @wrexham
This was stopped on the #A525 Wrexham. The reg came back to a Vauxhall not a Mustang. The driver had put false plates on his unregistered, imported car to avoid being stopped! He hadn’t only travelled unessessarily from Cambridge today to do some sightseeing, he now has no car!
Officers from Rota 1 have been providing a reassuring presence all across Wrexham today. We are all in this together after all.
#StayHomeSaveLives
NHS England hospital data can be found daily on (LINK) notes "Confirmation of COVID-19 diagnosis, death notification & reporting in central figures can take up to several days", figs "do not include deaths outside hospital" etc Data needs careful reading.
@wrexham @wrexhamcbc @ThisIsWrexham before and after @brymboheritage Waterside way Brymbo still lots to be done it's a mess!!
@wrexham After litter picking over the last week I think it necessary to show the mess being left at Waterside way Brymbo its utterly disgusting and unacceptable it needs a lot more work, if you fancy a litter pick this is the place to come! @wrexhamcbc @ThisIsWrexham @wrexhamFM
Sadly 12 further deaths in Wales of people who had tested positive for coronavirus. 166 people so far. "Coronavirus is now circulating in every part of Wales” (LINK)
@wrexham asking for the third time. Does anyone know if any food bank in wrexham that is open to take donations?
PC Hughes has been in Tesco in Wrexham today engaging with staff and customers regarding the duty that is upon all of us regarding social distancing and essential journeys. #StayHomeSaveLives
No caravans in sight this morning thankfully.
Please remember that campsites are closed.
Police checkpoints are in place across the network, so you will be stopped and be sent home if your journey is not essential.
@wrexham just been to A&E with my son, instead of going into the waiting area, we were triage outside, and the sent to Fracture Clinic which is now the Minor Injuries unit. They are only seeing really unwell people in the department.
@wrexham Well said. This lockdown is unlikely to be lifted until we have no more new cases. The morons making non essential trips, letting their kids all play together and otherwise not doing what they are told will extend the period of lockdown for everyone.
@MauricePaddock5 sadly it takes a new law when people do not do what is obvious
Officers from Rota 1 are out on foot patrol across Wrexham Town today. Reports from officers are that people are only making essential journeys into town. Patrols will be ongoing and we will be ensuring that business premises are safe and secure whilst not operating.
More on the ventilator figures and update - plus Minister notes the NICE guidelines are being used in Wales (first mention we can spot) (LINK)
For those treating this as a holiday or stretching the term ‘essential’, do you prefer the invasive or non-invasive ventilation of you, your friends, relatives (or mystery people you couldnbe infecting) in a few weeks time? (Just reading the latest Welsh Gov update)
@Brendan0908 Tbf shes been a menace singing at all hours in Acton Park
@kipper196988 Wish it would snow to help keep people at home! Quite a nice week ahead so no doubt some will keep treating this as a holiday rather than a public health emergency with an unprecedented lockdown to prevent community spread
Very sad but at the same time brilliant to see normally busy streets & riverbanks of Llangollen empty of people who are clearly listening to the message to stay at home. Big thank you from us all @NWPSpecials. Can't wait to have coffee and cake there again when this is all over!

One of the reasons in the new design we made the ‘this is old’ bit of code even bolder is people do misrepresent old stuff. Why... who knows.
Seeing this picture pop up a few times in the last 24hrs - it is old and is not from ‘roadblocks’. Rando twitter accounts having a joke probably not the best info sources!
As we face coronavirus together, I'd like to thank our Police officers and forces across Wales for their hard work helping to keep us safe.
Stay at home. Protect the NHS. Save lives.
PC Jones and PC Horne with you tonight patrolling Wrexham Town, keeping you safe and tackling all those who are not adhearing to the government guidlines. Please stay at home you will be asked about your journeys. #stayhomesavelives.
I am Police Sgt Lewis, I am a mother, wife, sister, daughter and aunty. I come to work to keep you safe, deal with those breaking the law and in these times help and support our NHS. Lovely support for me and my team from my lovely nephews and neice. #stayathomesavelives #NHS
Just switched out our 'stay home' graphic to freely promote this urgent call from @BetsiCadwaladr - across @DeesideDotCom and @northdotwales as well. If you know a business that could help - make sure they see the detail on (LINK) (LINK)
New law will be "A person responsible for work being carried out at premises where a person is working must,
when such work is being carried out during the emergency period,take all reasonable measures to ensure
that a distance of 2m is maintained between any persons on premises"
Good news, we have just had the face mask design approved by Bangor University and Betsi Cadwaladr NHS. Ready to start production for the Maelor Hospital on Tuesday.
Ordered a box of fruit, veg and salad this morning from Covent Garden, delivered this afternoon, good value and excellent service. Support small local shops @wrexham
@wrexham Yesterday was the busiest day in the last 2 weeks in our @RoyalMail Sorting Office. The weather picked up so everyone came out. We had a 90yr old come to collect glasses that a Postie attempted to deliver earlier that day. He was unsteady walking & had to have a redelivery today.
If this description of what it's like to die from Coronavirus doesn't make you #StayHome nothing will.
So there was just a rumbling sound and my toaster was rattling, and coffee was shaking.. did we just have an earthquake? @wrexham ps.. there was no low planes outside
Public Health Wales latest update: "13 further deaths have been reported to us of people who had tested positive for Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), taking the number of deaths in Wales to 154.” “Coronavirus is now circulating in every part of Wales"
The driver of this Porsche decided to come 'for a spin' from the #Shropshire area this morning.
Stopped in #Bala whilst we were on patrol.
He has been reported under the new #COVID19 legislation and will be dealt with by the court.
#StayHomeSaveLives #ProtectOurNHS
The issue with employers not sorting social distancing is resulting in a new law. How long before further shopping restrictions because a minority of people can’t be sensible ? ( (LINK) )
Message from a retail worker who wants to stay anon “Can only echo your recent tweet. Many people are treating this as a joke. Coming out to browse, or to buy a single item. Its surreal. The elderly are coming out, sometimes daily and its just not being taken seriously.”
🔴 We are urgently appealing to businesses that can change their production lines where possible to make personal protective equipment (#PPE)... (LINK)
Caravan and camping sites are CLOSED.
We can’t emphasise how important it is to stay at home
unless it’s absolutely essential, please follow the latest government advice.
(LINK)
Officers from Wrexham response rota 4 & NPT have been conducting road checks on the arterial routes in & out of Wrexham this morning. Lots of understanding & support from the public. We are here to keep you safe. #oneteam #stayathome
@Bennett1973Karl @Rob74275516 @wrexham @sarandlee24 Also my company is doing all the social distancing and PPE it can at moment. It's the shoppers turn to take a bit of responsibility and ask themselves do they really need to risk the spread to go buy fence paint or wander round to kill boredom
Please do not visit the town centre to shop unless it is absolutely necessary. The supermarkets are extremely busy this morning. Government guidance states that essential food shopping should be for basic necessities. Avoid unnecessary risk & help protect your family. #stayathome
STAY AT HOME 🏠
My simple message to people this weekend. If you are thinking of going out, please think again. We all can really make a difference by avoiding as much contact with others as possible. Stay home, protect our NHS, and save lives.
@EddieCarrot @wrexham Problem with gloves is that the moment you put them on they're effectively your hands; don't presume some miraculous protection. If you touch your face after touching something else without disposing of them & hand washing/sanitizer you may as well not wear them #WashYourHands
@wrexham What is annoying is a store will open for essentials but sells other stuff. A sensible shopper gets in, gets their stuff quickly gets out. It's the idiots that come in and then browse. It's disrespectful to the staff. We have someone come in last week and buy passport covers!!
I'm happy people are wearing gloves while shopping, but the amount that are thrown on the ground and not disposed of properly is shocking. It's not difficult to keep hold of them until you find a bin. Seeing it mostly near the Asda supermarket @wrexham
We know it’s tempting to visit our favourite places but please don’t. Please stay at home, protect our NHS and save lives. #Imstayinghome #staysafe #stayintosavelives @wrexham
On my daily walk along Rhosberse to Nant Mill. I took a bin bag with me today as I am fed up with lazy people who drop all their rubbish . this is how much I collected.most collected item? poo bags! @wrexhamcbc @wrexham @Keep_Wales_Tidy
@Bennett1973Karl @wrexham @sarandlee24 It would be really nice to have the option to stop selling these things but unfortunately it isn't up to the managers. What we can do however is raise the issue that people are shopping for stuff they don't need and hopefully get some result
@jn13ell Not sure stocking is a local decision (LINK) "Today we were busier than we were last year and that's with no kids out” - it appears people are making specific journeys for non essential items
@sarandlee24 It is from a manager at a store who noted law doesn't stop what people can buy, but wants people to be better "These people are putting mine, my staff and our families under extreme danger every time they leave the house so to shop for stuff mentioned.”
@wrexham If they are buying it alongside essentials it has nothing to do with them what you are buying as long as they are selling it..I’ve seen first hand utter rudeness by staff towards customers about purchases in Home Bargains and Aldi Llangollen. Don’t sell it then 🤡
@sarandlee24 It is from a manager at a store who noted law doesn't stop what people can buy, but wants people to be better "These people are putting mine, my staff and our families under extreme danger every time they leave the house so to shop for stuff mentioned.”
Our children are helping to keep our spirits up by creating a rainbow wall. Please please please stay at home, this virus is brutal and heartbreaking 💔@BetsiCadwaladr @wrexham
Retail person in touch: "it seems all the community wants is to buy garden benches, rugs, throws & other non essential lines”. Is your essential trip to buy supplies actually essential, or are you "putting 1000s of people's lives on the line for the sake of a tub of fence paint”?
If I stay at Home and you stay at Home and Everyone stays at Home then we wont have to stay at Home for long it's that simple #StayHomeSaveLives
We are out on patrol 👮🏼♂️🚔
#ThankYou to all who are observing the social distancing and the #StayHomeSaveLives message
Visitors are also encouraged to follow this advice. Our sites are closed, & visiting a second home/airbnb is not essential travel
#StayHomeSaveLives #COVID19
Good Morning from all officers based at Wrexham Police Station. We continue to be on duty day & night ensuring that we keep you safe. Please stay at home this weekend & share the message, NOT the virus! Thank you for your support. We are all in this together #StayHomeSavesLives
Anyone remember The Yardarm (Goff Jones & John Evans) and nights at the Credington Folk Club in the 70s? This album is on Spotify complete with vinyl crackles! @lagerwxm @wrexham @ThisIsWrexham
@wrexham Aw shame about the clouds grrr! A rushed blurry pic of Venus amongst the Pleiades tonight, just left of the star Merope.
Thankyou @Tesco #wrexham staff for your service & trying to enforce #SocialDistanacing in the supermarket this morning, shame some people think it’s open to have a browse or acknowledge / understand the need for the social distancing #StayHomeSaveLives @wrexham
Great opportunity for those looking to join University in September 😃👍🏼

@wrexham the number of arriva buses I saw today with the logo.... NHS WE LOVE YOU.. brought tears to my eyes.. WELL DONE..
Might as well be a normal day here by the Greyhound roundabout on Holt Road in Wrexham the amount of traffic about. Don’t believe all these are doing essential journeys. What are people not getting about this virus. It’s worrying they’re not getting message @wrexham @NWPRPU
@wrexham, can any of your lovely followers tell us where the click and collect is for Tesco Wrexham? Is it the car park or in store?
Reminder – All of our household recycling centres will be closed by the end of today. Kerbside waste collection from outside your home is continuing as normal.

For those interested here is the drop off of positions tracked/reported on our PiAware setup locally. Basically logging aircraft.
@aaron_lincoln1 This looks like it - Memphis to London FedEx plane - nothing else up in the sky!
"We know that council staff are working incredibly hard to keep our critical services going, and that local residents are showing tremendous understanding and patience, as they’re asked to make huge changes to their daily lives.” (LINK)
@SteveJones8 @flynhatersteve Picture is of them going into Wales. Think we have been pretty clear that anyone who is making non essential journeys are dangerous idiots in our book regardless. No bias on idiots idioting.
@Bekijo1 @wrexham These people need more than fining!
Please NW Police do something!
I work in Education and have a daughter who is a carer and a son in Tesco (all doing our bit!) Husband staying at home as he is a type one diabetic!
You are doing an amazing job, we salute the NHS!
@wrexham I’m fuming!!! The roads in Wrexham town are so busy this afternoon.... I was returning home from work in clinic. Why should I risk my health going to work whilst the stay at home people take the pee......
@wrexham I hope the Police are on every Major road turning people back if they are coming into North Wales and if necessary fining them for their Stupidity
@CH1Chester @CWBizHub @Go_CheshireWest @MktgCheshire @chesterdotcom @chestertweetsuk @TasteCheshire @ChesterMarketCH dont think there is any deadline on this
@wrexham currently just seems like a normal Friday. Can hear people outside our window talking about so and so “coming round to ours after”. What. Is. The. Point.
"Today I’m calling on companies here in Wales to help our NHS to produce PPE products for the front line” (LINK)
Patrols today outside the hospital due to some sorry reports. Happy to say all clear here at the present.
Look at that sky! The small things can help.
Stay positive.
#stayhome #protecttheNHS #savelives
Half hour until the recycling site near Brymbo closes for the foreseeable and the queues are building up in both directions. Avoid travelling through Lodge if possible. (LINK)
Out this afternoon with PC Dave Smith. St Giles looks glorious from this angle and Bellevue Park was sunny, green and largely empty so I thank you @wrexham for your continued efforts in helping to #SaveOurNHS and each other in these challenging and worrying times. #StayAtHome
The Premier League’s overriding priority is to aid the health and wellbeing of the nation and our communities. The 2019/20 season will only return when it is safe and appropriate to do so.

A plea for 3D printers. We have the PCs, print files and a few 3D printers, we just need more 3D printers. If you or your organisation have a 3D printer we could borrow to make more face shields, please contact matt.vickery@clywedog.org if you can help, alternatively please share
Thanks to all the staff at @Morrisons @wrexham this morning, all their usual friendly helpful selves (amongst all of this) and keeping everyone safe and fed, with well stocked shelves. It always means a lot, but especially now when it's our only time out of the house.
A little heads-up for those struggling to get out or get a delivery spot from the other supermarkets in @wrexham, I've just seen that the 24 hour Spar in Rhosddu is now doing a delivery service.
Briefing wraps up - we along with @DeesideDotCom got one Q in. We also asked if Welsh Gov could wipe NHS Trust debts, and also kept our theme about asking if age boundaries (65 year olds - like Mr Drakeford) should be a factor in deciding treatment

@stmaryswxm @wrexham @NHSuk
@Paulfitzpatick @scotthughesoff @DaveMazz07 No community testing so the confirmed cases not really worthwhile. Low numbers of testing in Wales generally. People are putting that out as data almost for datas sake.
If anyone’s about on there walks today or has seen this dog could you please get in touch with Lisa 07766006424 @wrexham
@MiniArtBuds have sent me some of their designs for their latest task of designing pictures for a pamphlet for a Doctor working at #Wrexham Maelor #Hospital #NHS @wrexham @lesley4wrexham #WashYourHands @GeorgeP18602063

PC 3339 Norton joining in with the #clapforcarers this evening. #thankyouNHS #stayathome #COVID19
@wrexham Sadly the fly tipping continues on the back lanes. My cousin took this picture of freshly dumped waste on Sandy Lane this evening.
Vile scum!
