Issue at Dow Corning has been resolved, it was a sticky valve on a high pressure unit which resulted in a release of steam.
All quiet now.

| Glorious sunshine this bank holiday weekend has seen thousands head for popular beaches and parks across south Wales.
Unfortunately, a number of children have been reported missing to us by worried parents and guardians.
We’re pleased to add that all children reported missing have been reunited with them and are safe.
But it's a distressing experience for all involved, so we’d like to share some tips to keep your children safe and your trip stress-free:
👇

😎 Photo: Before you leave the house, take a full-body photo of each child. If a separation occurs, you will have an accurate, up-to-date visual to show security or police.

😎 ID and contact: Slip a paper with your phone number into their pocket, or write your mobile number directly on their forearm using a permanent marker.

😎 "Stop and Wait”: Teach younger children to freeze exactly where they are the moment they realize they can't see you. It is much easier for you to find them if they stay put.

😎 Who to approach: Instruct your children to only ask for help from uniformed staff (like security or police) or another parent with a pram/family if they are lost.

😎 Designated meeting point: Upon arrival, pick an obvious, central location (such as a large statue, information desk, or specific café) and establish it as your go-to meeting point.

🚨 Contact South Wales Police immediately if your child is missing! If you're in a busy place like a popular beach an officer or a PCSO won't be far away...

Remembering some of these simple tips can really help if your child does happen to lose you! Whatever your plans, enjoy your day out and stay safe.

From all of us at South Wales Police, enjoy the rest of the bank holiday weekend! ☀️

Our new bus shelters and accessible pavements in Cadoc ward are looking fabulous!!🚏🚍🚎🚌🚏

It was great to welcome Eluned Morgan, the First Minister of Wales, to Barry this morning to support our fantastic Welsh Labour candidates ahead of the 2026 Senedd election this May. 🌹

Over the past two years, Eluned has been a strong voice for Wales, fighting for the fair funding our nation deserves after 14 years of Conservative Government.

It was brilliant to have her here in Barry speaking with local residents and backing our team as we continue making the case for Welsh Labour’s positive plan for Wales. 🙌
