Attempted Break-In at The Red Lion – Appeal for Information

An attempted break-in occurred at The Red Lion public house in Overton at approximately 3:30am this morning. Two individuals were captured on CCTV footage trying to gain access to the premises.

The suspects were seen arriving in what appears to be an older-model white Ford Transit Connect van, believed to be more than ten years old. They are described as being of Eastern European appearance.

While the individuals were caught on camera, the vehicle’s registration plate was not clearly visible. It is believed that this may not have been an isolated incident, and there is concern that local pubs and restaurants are being specifically targeted.

Anyone with relevant footage or information is asked to contact The Red Lion directly on 01256 212053 or report it to Hampshire Police.

Testbourne Community School Charges Ahead with New EV Charging Points

Testbourne Community School is driving forward with its commitment to sustainability by installing four brand-new electric vehicle (EV) charging points at the front of the school grounds.

Powered by renewable energy supplier Bright Green, these state-of-the-art chargers are now live and available for public use. Whether you’re dropping off the kids, running errands, or just passing through, you can now top up your vehicle with ease.

The chargers can be accessed via a smartphone app or directly through an intuitive touchscreen kiosk, making the process as smooth as possible for both seasoned EV drivers and those new to the experience.

This local initiative forms part of a broader push to make greener transport options more practical and accessible across the region. By installing public-use charging infrastructure in central community locations, Testbourne is helping to pave the way for a cleaner, more sustainable future — one charge at a time.
