Report: PC Dave Fairclough

Next week is 'Operation Sceptre', a nationwide operation aimed at tackling knife crime.
I am sure you will be aware from the media that unfortunately far too many people still think it is acceptable to carry knives in public.

Lives are needlessly destroyed by people carrying knives, and officers from the Neighbourhood teams across the Constabulary will be conducting a range of activities both targeting suspects and educating youngsters of the dangers and consequences.

If you are aware of a person carrying a knife or if you would like a talk aimed at a youth group or school, please don’t hesitate to get in contact and we will take action/arrange a visit via HQ on 01772 614444.
