“We continue to thank members of the community for providing information and reporting anti-social behaviour and drug use where they see it.
“As well as your information and reports playing a huge part in how we plan our local policing, all reports will also help us to bring any offenders to justice and make sure it doesn’t happen to anyone else.”
Over the last three months Mr Reed has been completing his training and working towards the end of the PCSO apprenticeship programme.
