Tixover House in Tixover, warmly welcomed PC Rebecca Angel and PC Peter Icke into our home to meet our residents, colleagues and members of the local community.

Our residents were treated to a fascinating talk by PC Angel and PC Icke as they spoke about their time on the force and the day to day tasks and challenges they face within the community.

Our residents enjoyed being able to look at the equipment used by the modern day police force and took great delight in being able to have a look around the police car.
