Taking time today to remember Hollie, murdered on today’s date in February 2014. I have such admiration for Hollie’s family; Nick, Mandy and Chloe for their determination to help others in the face of their personal tragedy. Let’s embrace the opportunities from their efforts.

Honoured to have led a #RemembranceDay service at our headquarters this morning. An opportunity to reflect on the sacrifices made and to honour the fallen in World Wars and other conflicts since, including #Gloucestershire police officers & firefighters #LestWeForget

Losing such fine people this week albeit colleagues who thoroughly deserve to put down the pressures of policing. Gemma Avery, after 33 years leaves as an experienced detective investigating rapes and serious sexual offences. Thank you Gemma, enjoy the next chapter of your life.

Welcome to our latest batch of fine officers. A long haul but definitely worth he wait. I was very proud this evening to formalise their appointments in front of their friends and family and wish them a long, safe and productive career with Gloucestershire Constabulary.

A joy to say a fond farewell to our colleague Sue Conboy after 24 yrs in policing and to receive framed photos of the magnificent 20k+ epaulettes mural inspired by the death of PC Harper and now a tribute to all our Protective Services. Sue oversaw the gathering of 600 from GC.

Congratulations to Steve and Josh for being the SW Region winners of last night’s Police Bravery Awards. Off duty, responding to a murderous attack and no doubt saved other lives. Very proud to recognise their selfless actions alongside their partners, our PCC and PFEW PS James.
