I got the loveliest note of thanks for two officers and the ‘lady officer’ and ‘officer with the long ginger beard’ have now been identified and thanked for their intervention with a male in crisis.
Now just want to check
@PDMarleyK9
hasn’t been left anywhere today…
Every day the officers and staff of
@syptweet
show courage and tenacity. In Doncaster yesterday this included a Sergeant entering a fast flowing river to save life and Detectives securing attempt murder charges following a top class investigation.
1. Devastating news. PH Hoober sadly passed away this week after suffering a twisted gut. There are not enough superlatives to describe this amazing guy. He was our bravest horse, a genuine rock, and a truly lovely character.
I was honoured to attend
#TroopingTheColour
today as a guest of

A spectacular display. Managed to meet up with the
@syptweet
rep PC Bellamy before it started, and the tallest soldier! A fantastic day - thank you to all those who policed the event
999 is for emergency use, not to report that Sean Bean has stopped acting! At 0300 yesterday when operators were busy with genuine calls we did receive this complaint, via 999. Misuse of 999 causes delays to those who really do need our help

Since this tragic incident we have been contacted by members of the policing family and the public across the UK and further afield with messages of condolence and support. Thank you for this, it means a lot to us and we will be sharing these messages with Matt’s family. 💙
This morning saw the

Last weekend my Labrador, Stanley, passed the

@syptweet
workplace soon 🐾
40 brand new officers attested for
@syptweet
this evening. Proud family members were there to share this important moment with them. Great effort from the training team and the new officers to deliver a memorable evening - thank you 😊
Earlier this week I took PWD Stanley in for a day. He is very proud of his coat, but didn’t think much to his first meeting 💤💤 highlight of his day was stealing a sandwich from a desk 🤦🏻♀️

PC Andrew Harper. Only 28 and married his beautiful wife 4 wks ago. Every one of us in the police family have you in our thoughts & our hearts Lissie. Words can't describe.
I'm so sorry brother. We carry on in your name. We hold that thin blue line. It's what you would've done.
I am delighted

Officers from 29 forces were in London yesterday to support their Met colleagues.
We’re grateful to them all, but particularly the
@SYPTweet
officers who were travelling back to their accommodation when they stopped and arrested a suspect fleeing a robbery.
A great effort! 👏
Today we remember so many to who we owe so much. My Great Grandfather, Ernest Roach, who was lost off Dogger Bank whilst serving on HMS Arabis, Feb 10th 1916, will be in my thoughts

Our Force Awards ceremony last night showcased just a few of the people who make
@syptweet
great. They included officers, staff, volunteers and the public. Having read all the nominations I can say each and every finalist was brilliant!
Today I went to catch up with a Communications Manager from our contact centre ahead of her retirement after 32 years with
@syptweet
, first as an officer and then as a police staff member. After previously swapping stories about never being able to find a spoon, she got me this!
Had a conversation with
@andysmanclubuk
on Tuesday about how we can promote them in

Do you remember Rik? Rik is the first sign-up in our trial to give free GPS trackers to people living with dementia.
The trial is the first of its kind, and will allow families of people with dementia to have peace of mind and safeguard their loved ones.
