I am PC 5503 Jay Dorman.  I have previously worked in Truro and St Austell East  before taking on my new role as the neighbourhood beat manager for Mevagissey/Grampound.  I currently police ten villages in total, they are Gorran, Gorran Haven, Mevagissey, Polgooth, Sticker, St.Ewe, Porthpean, Pentewan, Portholland East and Grampound/Creed.  I have been in this role since the summer 2008 and have enjoyed getting to know the diverse communities within.  In this time both PCSO Hemming and I have been tackling crime and anti-social behaviour to improve the quality of life for those who live and work within the beat.

PCSO 30297 Tony Hemming

Hello all, my name is Tony Hemming and I am the Police Community Support Officer for the Mevagissey area.  Prior to working the 'Meva' beat, I was the PCSO for Penwithick, Stenalees and Treverbyn.  As well as Mevagissey, my patch also includes Gorran Haven, Polgooth, Sticker, Grampound, Pentewan and London Apprentice.  I am also lucky enough to patrol Caerhays, Portmellon, Porthpean and East Portholland.  Before joining the Police Force I worked at Restormel Borough Council and Ocean Housing.

Mevagissey (Cornish: 'Lannvorek') is a village and fishing port situated 6 miles from the main town of St Austell.  The village is in a small valley near the centre of east-facing Mevagissey Bay.  The inner and outer harbours are busy with a mixture of pleasure vessels and fishing boats, and there are currently 63 registered fishing boats worked by 69 fishermen.

The village consists of very narrow, picturesque streets with a wide choice of places to dine and relax, as well as local produce shops and shops aimed at the tourist trade.
