Ovenden Neighbourhood Officers, PC Kim McCloskey and PCSO Trevor Lovelock, along with Council Warden Dave Pickard, attended a local Men’s group at Halifax Rugby Union Club, Ovenden Park on Wednesday 4 November to speak to members about the current Autumn/Winter Burglary Campaign and how to get a free Crime Prevention Survey.

The group were very interested in the partnership working that the officers are involved in around the area, including projects with Youth Services for the younger generation, up-coming Community work and becoming a Special Constable.
