Dirty Boots
From the picture below, it looks like my PSU ( Public Support Unit) boots need a bit of a polish. They are issued to all PSU officers as part of our equipment and to be honest they are too big for me so I have to wear extra thick socks. I’ve had them along time and they have become very comfortable over that time. PSU is not just about public order it’s often more about public safety,...
Rather tired
Having worked the weekend as Force Silver, the first cup of coffee this morning was certainly needed .
The weekend was fairly busy with a number of serious incidents dealt with.As the late turn Silver you finish in the early hours and remain on call til 7am, when the days Silver takes over.
Sometimes you just have a feeling that you are going to get an early morning call. I had that feeling on...

Today has been quite strange in a number of ways, I started off at Crawley for our regular Command Team Meeting where we were joined by our Chief, Mr Richards. He was there for 2 reasons; Firstly to join us at 11 am to remember all those who have fallen on the battlefields across the world and secondly to talk to us about our new Leadership Charter and where the Force is trying to go.
He spoke...

Prior to the meeting I had liaised with our Licensing Unit and was aware of the...
A reality check
Having had a busy day and feeling I have achieved quite a lot I am brought back down to earth when I get home.
One says ‘Mum, I couldn’t find an ironed shirt for school this morning. Can you make sure it’s better next week. ’ The other then tells me about a friend who was stopped by Police following a burglary, ‘he was ok about it and realised something had happened...
Busy day
The last few days have been very busy with lots of meetings discussing a number of things . We have also spent sometime looking at our current structures and are tweaking them slightly to meet the needs of Arun.
Yesterday evening I attended an Angmering parish council meeting to discuss a very sensitive issue that of gypsies and travellers. Our role as the Police is to uphold the law and ensure...
