    ‘Your local Community Officer will be at Henry Smith playing field, Potton on Sunday 26th October at 11am. I will be at this location for 30 minutes before patrolling the town. Please take this opportunity to raise any concerns you may have and to find out what we are doing to tackle the issues that matter to you.

    Everyone is welcome and it would be great to see you there, dogs are more than welcome to come along; in fact, I insist on it. If you would like to contact me beforehand, we can arrange to meet during this time.

    Please bear in mind that as a front-line officer I may be called away on a job before or during the event, if this happens, I will try and let you know at the earliest possible time.’
