Submitted by jhex68 on Mon, 24/03/2025 - 8:11am

Thank you to everyone who expressed their thanks and support to Constables Andrew, Vince, Sam and Janelle for their work during their recent foot patrols at WOMAD. The three-day event was a great success with only one person evicted and lots of children and parents who were accidentally separated, successfully reunited.
