Cheshire Police contact Poynton Whippy

The police contacted us today and perhaps you can help? An unlicensed rogue trader has today (Saturday 28th August 2010) left the scene of an accident (a hit and run) at Beechfield Avenue in Wilmslow. Were you a witness?

The officer I spoke to was unable to give too much detail, however, they are looking for a Pink ice cream van with the 7 dwarfs on it. Perhaps it visits your street on a regular basis, or you know the driver.

If so, please contact Cheshire Police on 0845 458 0000 and quote: incident No: 548 on the 28/8/10

Cheshire East council officer Mrs Nikki Cadman first promised to deal with unlicensed rogue traders on the 23rd of June 2010, and to date along with her enforcement colleague Allison Jackson and manager Tony Potts, all they appear to have done is stick their heads in the sand.


Stockport council act swiftly to deal with unlicensed traders, and a photograph of both the driver and the van have to be provided. Imagine how useful that would be to the Police when a situation like this arises. When will the Cheshire East council finally act? Are they waiting for a child to be run over for the driver to flee the scene?

I will gladly post any positive progress they report - but don't hold your breath.

To contact Cheshire East licensing if you see a suspicious ice cream trader e -mail to:   Nikki Cadman
