Thank you PC Khurram Masood for your superb work responding to a difficult incident involving a suicidal man in Portsmouth. Your support to our force negotiator team was first class and you helped save a life. A worthy recipient of our new Congratulations Coin 👏👏
On my first day in this important new role I wanted to start by reflecting on the service of those who have gone before us
@hantspolice
and can no longer be with us. In memory and not forgotten.
I am truly humbled to have been awarded a King’s Police Medal for Distinguished Service. Great policing and community service relies on effective teamwork and I want to recognise and thank all the fantastic colleagues right across policing with whom I work.
👏 Congratulations to Deputy Chief Constable Ben Snuggs and Tori Olphin, Chief Data Scientist and Head of Research for Thames Valley Police’s Violence Reduction Unit, who have been recognised in the King's New Year Honours List.
