TWO beggars with permanent home addresses were among those dealt with by police.
Officers dealt with a total of four people begging following complaints in the Westbourne area yesterday.
A spokesman for Bournemouth Police said: "One male was given a Section 35 Dispersal Notice due to persistently begging and three others were given warnings should they continue to beg in the area. Two of them are permanently housed.

"There are organisations that help and support people sleeping rough. If you have concerns for anyone, you can visit the StreetLink website which is the national referral service managed by St Mungo's in partnership with Homeless Link."
Officers said they also helped a male in the Triangle in Bournemouth town centre who said he was in need of food.
