Well done to all the young people @SchoolDalmemny who completed their final session of our Junior Cop Good Citizen programme. The last input was "The Role of the Police" so everyone got a shot in the police car before being awarded their certificates. #CommunityPolicing

Superb day and turnout at Ferry Fair. Events continue tonight. Parents, do you know where your children are? Small minority of teenagers in attendance last night causing issues through alcohol/drugs. Organisers have put in a lot of effort. Please don't spoil this for them.
