Congratulations on your victory.

I was very pleased to see (on the night after the election) a couple of police officers at work outside Tesco / Chip Shop on Campkin road. They appeared to be having a well humoured non threatening, non accusatory conversation with a group of young people. This is exactly the kind of police work we need in the area (as well as aggressively following up real crimes) drawing in the young people to engage with the police positively and not to hound and criminalise them is in my opinion the best way to keep Kings Hedges thriving.

Please keep up the good work in developing a cohesive community centred approach to administering the needs of the area and I may even vote for you next time ;-))
