Crime prevention advice and local policing matters were discussed by residents with officers at a beat surgery in Welwyn.

PCSO Anne Devine, PC Liam Beaumont and PC Mitch Cartwright held a Welwyn Hatfield Safer Neighbourhood Team stall outside the Civic Centre in the village between 11am and 1pm on Sunday, May 21.

Welwyn residents were able to get crime prevention advice and speak to officers about any worries they had.

Free security devices such as purse bells were also available.

PCSO Anne Devine said: “We always enjoy meeting with residents face to face and I would like to thank everybody who came along to see us.

“It was useful hearing your views and I hope that you left the beat surgery feeling reassured.”
