A pensioner struggling to tend his garden was given a helping hand from two North Kensington PCSOs.

Loizos Michalopoulos, of Silchester Road, had spoken to the PCSOs about anti-social behaviour in his street, and the pair made regular visits to his home to see how they could address the concerns.

But while talking to him, PCSOs Paulotto Castro and Nick Fletcher learned the pensioner was a keen gardener, but could not tend his garden as he would like anymore.

So the officers contacted Age Concern to see what help could be provided, and they subsequently arranged for a gardener to visit Mr Michalopoulos to help him work in the garden.

A conman who rented a town house in Chelsea using a fake identity before trying to sell it on has been jailed for three years.

He admitted possession of a fake driving licence, a fake passport, and acquiring criminal property.

Rice was 'a front' for a gang who would rent expensive properties before attempting to sell them, and the court heard officers are trying to trace the rest of the gang.
