BCH Operational Support Unit

It was great to speak to the teenagers at @DenbighHigh last week showcasing the specialisms in our Joint Protective Services and detailing how we help to protect our community.

F L O O D R E L I E F - Yesterday we were called to assist @EnvAgency with efforts to prevent the River Ivel bursting its bank near to Sandy, Bedfordshire. Not your average day at the office, but then we’re not your average team 👍🏼

B R O N Z E - Back in the classroom with a cohort of aspiring Bronze Commanders. Candidates from @bedspolice, @EssexPoliceUK, @HertsPolice, @leicspolice, @LincsPolice, @NorfolkPolice, @NorthantsPolice and @SuffolkPolice making for some good discussion and shared experiences 👍🏼

On #IWD2024 we spoke to PC Jenna Darling about her role in the OSU. “I am biased, but I have the best role in policing. I enjoy the teamwork and partnership working. "Never let anyone tell you can’t, if you have desire, tenacity and passion, that’s enough."

It is #WhiteRibbonDay – the internationally recognised day to show commitment to ending violence against women and girls. How will you #ChangeTheStory by being an ally to women and girls? orlo.uk/IVnIX

W A T E R S A F E T Y - As part of #DrowningPreventionWeek we took part in some multi-agency training with @BedsFire and @EnvAgency this week. Whilst we will be there if you needs us, we would much rather you #respectthewater and #EnjoyWaterSafely @RLSSUK @Fest4BedsPCC

W A T E R S A F E T Y - With the heatwave forecast to continue the temptation to cool off in open water comes with significant risks. We train hard so we are at our best when you need us. Please help us keep your loved ones safe #openwatersafety #beprepared @RLSSUK
