Wishing you all a safe and Happy New Year!
Officers will continue to be out and about this evening as 2021 comes to an end.
The force has been planning ahead of this evening to ensure we have a high-visibility policing presence in place and that we are able to respond to any incidents quickly and effectively.
Please ensure that however you are celebrating, you do so safely and that you plan ahead.
Please also follow NHS and Government Covid-19 guidance to help keep yourselves and others protected from Coronavirus. Guidance includes taking a lateral flow test if you are meeting others.
Remember that vaccination clinics also remain open over the holiday period for walk ins and appointments.
Chief Inspector Manjit Atwal said: “Our officers and staff have been planning ahead for this evening and we will be out and about working to keep you safe.
“Please continue to work with us and look after yourselves and your families and friends and please celebrate safely.”
“Thank you to all our officers and staff who are working tonight and, of course, thank you to our officers and staff for their tremendous work throughout this year.
“Thank you also to you, our communities and our partners, for your support throughout this year.
“Happy New Year and we wish you all the best for the year 2022! Stay safe!”
