Newtown police team awarded

Newtown’s Neighbourhood Police team has come out on top for their Commitment to Diversity at the Dyfed Powys Police’s Criminal Justice Awards.

The team has been recognised for working closely with minority groups within the town to gain their confidence by holding surgeries, and engaging with businesses and the local authority.

Pictured receiving the award from Chief Constable Ian Arundale are Newtown PC Rashmita Wharton and Sergeant Jon Rees watched by Chief Inspector Peter Roderick and Inspector Paul Ridley.
