Last Friday morning, Richard Fuller MP spent time riding along with the Community Police Team covering Potton, Sandy and Biggleswade.
Speaking after the morning, he said:
I learnt a lot about the way the Community Policing teams build up a detailed view on local crime and anti-social behaviour as well as securing arrests on key local concerns such as drug dealing.
During my time we checked on illegal encampments (moved on), a recent arson attack on an abandoned barn and visited multiple locations for checks.
I was impressed by the dedication of the officer and his commitment to the area he covers: a great example of the new officers being recruited as part of the national drive to recruit 20,000 new officers.
