Open day at Market Harborough police station, Fun Fair,

When our Mayor Sees this he will I am sure suggest a similar at the next community safety partnership meeting he attends. He might even suggest its his own idea? If it does happen can the town council lend their stocks please. Could be fun to chuck a few sponges at our Inspector. Of Leicestershire Constabulary have a habit of moving officers of senior rank, I would like to see in the stocks.

Open day at Market Harborough police station

The police in Market Harborough are holding an open day at the police station. 

Members of the public are very welcome to come along to the police station on Saturday 29th September 2012 between 11am and 2pm.  

They will be able to look around the cells; sit in a police car and try on lots of officer’s equipment.  

Neighbourhood Watch and the Harborough District Community Safety Partnership will also have a stall with crime prevention advice and there’ll be people to talk to about becoming a police volunteer or a Special Constable.

The fire service will have a fire engine in the car park too and there will be some small fun fair rides for young children and a chance to get your bicycle post coded. 

Inspector Paul McKinder, Commander of Market Harborough local policing unit, said; “We’d welcome people of all ages to come along, meet their local officers and have a look around the police station.  We haven’t held an open day before and we wanted to give people a better understanding of what officers do and by opening our doors I hope lots of people will come along, have a fun time and it will continue to build strong links with the community. I am really pleased that a number of other agencies are keen to join us too so we look forward to seeing as many people as possible on Saturday 29th.”
