Community Engagement in Full Swing

👮‍♂️🚓 Wantage & Grove Neighbourhood Team – Community Engagement in Full Swing! 🚓👮‍♀️

Today we’ve been out and about engaging with our local communities at two fantastic events:

✅ At Wantage Primary Academy’s Summer Fete, we were joined by our specialist colleague PD Moss 🐾 – a digital detection dog trained to locate hidden electronic devices such as phones, USB sticks, and memory cards. His handler gave a live demonstration which impressed both children and adults alike! 🕵️‍♂️💾

✅ Meanwhile, at East Hendred, we continued our Have Your Say Roadshow, speaking with residents about local issues and carrying out SmartWater marking on bikes and power tools to help prevent theft. 🚲🔧
